Heavy-metal-free quantum dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) face commercialization challenges due to low efficiency and poor stability. Spin-coated quantum dot films often create charge leakage areas, limiting device performance. Here, we develop an evaporative-driven self-assembly strategy that enables the preparation of uniform and dense InP-based quantum dot films. During device operation, these films effectively suppress performance degradation caused by charge leakage. QLEDs with uniform and dense InP-based quantum dot films achieve high external quantum efficiency (26.6%) and luminance (1.4 × 10cd m), along with considerable stability (extrapolated T lifetime of 4026 hours at 1000 cd m). For a 2 × 3 cm InP-based device, the peak external quantum efficiency reaches 21.1%. By combining high-performance QLEDs with lithography technology, we fabricate miniaturized QLEDs with a minimum pixel size of 3 μm, achieving a resolution as high as 5080 pixels per inch and a peak external quantum efficiency of 22.6%.
无重金属量子点发光二极管(QLED)由于效率低和稳定性差而面临商业化挑战。旋涂量子点薄膜经常会产生电荷泄漏区域,限制了器件性能。在此,我们开发了一种蒸发驱动的自组装策略,能够制备均匀且致密的基于InP的量子点薄膜。在器件运行过程中,这些薄膜有效地抑制了由电荷泄漏引起的性能退化。具有均匀且致密的基于InP的量子点薄膜的QLED实现了高外部量子效率(26.6%)和亮度(1.4×10cd m),以及相当的稳定性(在1000cd m下外推T寿命为4026小时)。对于一个2×3cm的基于InP的器件,峰值外部量子效率达到21.1%。通过将高性能QLED与光刻技术相结合,我们制造出了最小像素尺寸为3μm的微型QLED,实现了高达每英寸5080像素的分辨率和22.6%的峰值外部量子效率。
