Colloidal semiconductor quantum dots are a well-established technology, with numerous materials available either commercially or through the vast body of literature. The prevalent materials are cadmium-based and are unlikely to find general acceptance in most applications. While the III-V family of materials is a likely substitute, issues remain about its long-term suitability, and other earth-abundant materials are being explored. In this report, we highlight a nanoscale half-Heusler semiconductor, LiZnN, composed of readily available elements as a potential alternative system to luminescent II-VI and III-V nanoparticle quantum dots.
胶体半导体量子点是一项成熟的技术，有许多材料可通过商业途径或大量文献获取。常见的材料是基于镉的，在大多数应用中不太可能被广泛接受。虽然III-V族材料可能是一种替代品，但其长期适用性仍存在问题，并且正在探索其他储量丰富的材料。在本报告中，我们重点介绍了一种纳米级半赫斯勒半导体LiZnN，它由易于获取的元素组成，是发光II-VI和III-V纳米颗粒量子点的潜在替代系统。
