Luminescence White Light from CdTe/ZnSe Core/Shell Nanocrystals System

Article Preview

Abstract:

The white light generation mechanism was explained depending on mixing colors from the illuminated CdTe/ZnSe core/shell nanocrystals. The color mixed in CdTe/ZnSe core/shell system were used to generate intense white light when illuminated by InGaN/GaN UV LED (λ=360 nm) the core/shell system tuned the chromaticity coordinates to (0.30, 0.32) and increased the intensity of the emitted white light. This improvement was attributed to the overlap of emission with the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum of CdTe/ZnSe core/shell which leads to a cold white light generation.
