Researchers at Empa and ETH have made a significant breakthrough in improving the brightness of perovskite quantum dots. By using chemical methods and exploiting quantum mechanical effects, the team has enhanced the efficiency of these nanocrystals, making them more effective emitters of light. This advancement holds great promise for applications in displays and quantum technologies.
Perovskite quantum dots are synthetic atoms, just a few nanometres in size, made from semiconductor materials. They have the ability to emit light of a specific color or even single photons, which is crucial for quantum technologies. In recognition of their groundbreaking work in the commercial production of quantum dots, the Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to the pioneers in 2023. In recent years, perovskite quantum dots have garnered attention due to their unique properties. These nanocrystals can be easily processed and have superior optical characteristics, resulting in brighter emissions compared to other quantum dots. Additionally, they are more cost-effective, making them attractive for various applications, including displays.
