Part of the book series: Series in Display Science and Technology ((SDST))

Abstract

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are a few nanometer-sized semiconductor nanocrystals whose electronic states are subject to change depending on their dimension. QDs have been of great interest as light-emitting materials in future displays owing to their superb optical properties such as near-unity photoluminescence quantum yield and narrow emission spectra, as well as their solution processability. The present chapter focuses on the emerging display technologies based on quantum dots. Specifically, this chapter covers the brief introduction of quantum dots for light-emitting applications, photophysical properties of quantum dots relevant to light-emitting applications, and the state-of-the-art of, and the perspectives on QD-based display technologies.
