Abstract:
InP quantum dots (QDs) are the most competitive in terms of environmentally friendly QDs. However, the synthesis of InP QDs requires breakthroughs in low-cost and safe phosphorus precursors such as tri(dimethylamino)phosphine [(DMA)3P]. It is found that even if the oxygen is completely avoided, there are still oxidation state defects at the core/shell interface of InP QDs. Herein, the record-breaking (DMA)3P-based red InP QDs were synthesized with the assist of HF processing to eliminate the InPO defect and improve the fluorescence efficiency. The maximum photoluminescence quantum yield was 97.7%, which is the highest of the red InP QDs synthesized by the aminophosphine. The external quantum efficiency and brightness of the QD light-emitting diode device are also improved accordingly from 0.6% and 1276 cd·m-2 to 3.5% and 2355 cd·m-2, respectively.
