Abstract

Recently, perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have attracted intensive interest due to their outstanding optical properties, but their extremely poor chemical stability hinders the development of the high-performance perovskite QD-based light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs). In this study, chemically stable SiO2-coated core-shell perovskite QDs are prepared to fabricate all-solution-processed PeLEDs. When the SiO2 shell thickness increases, the chemical stability of perovskite QDs is dramatically improved, while the charge injection efficiency is significantly decreased, which becomes the biggest obstacle for PeLED applications. Thus, controlling the SiO2 thickness is essential to obtain core-shell perovskite QDs optimal for PeLEDs in an aspect of chemical and optoelectrical properties. The 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTES)/oleylamine (OAm) volume ratio is found to be a critical factor for obtaining an ultrathin SiO2 shell. Optimization of the APTES/OAm ratio affords A-site-doped CsPbBr3 QDs with an ultrathin SiO2 shell (A-CsPbBr3@SiO2 QDs) that exhibit longer radiative lifetimes and smaller shallow trap fraction than those without A-site doping, resulting in a higher photoluminescence quantum yield. A-CsPbBr3@SiO2 QDs also demonstrate ...Continue Reading

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
