Synthesis and Conversion Efficiency Optimization of Quantum Dots Layer for Full-color Micro-LED Display增强出版
colloidal CdSe/ZnS quantum dots(QDs) with modified ligands are dispersed in photoresist and then patterned on blue InGaN/GaN Micro-LED by lithography process
demonstrating a high-resolution and highly efficient color conversion layer with critical dimension of 3 μm. The absorption/emission spectrum and photoluminescence quantum yield(PLQY) of the QDs color conversion layer(CCL) with different thickness and mixing ratio are systematically studied. To improve the conversion efficiency

scattering particles are diffused into the QDs CCL to enhance the blue light absorption. Moreover
a tailored distributed Bragg reflector(DBR) is introduced to make the unabsorbed blue photons bounce back to the QDs CCL
which not only amplifies the blue light absorption but also strengthens the saturation of the converted colors. The PLQY of the QDs CCL is even increased after appropriate hard baking. Black matrix material is applied to suppress the light crosstalk among neighboring pixels
thus higher contrast and color saturation are obtained. The promising experimental results prove that the QDs photoresist is feasible to construct a high-resolution and highly efficient color conversion layer by lithography process
paving a novel and reliable pathway to monolithic full-color Micro-LED displays.
