We report the room-temperature lasing action from two-dimensional photonic crystal structures composed of a passive Si3N4 backbone with an over-coat of CdSe/CdS/ZnS colloidal quantum dots for optical gain.
For quantum dots light-emitting diodes (QLEDs), typical colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are usually composed of a core/shell heterostructure which is covered with organic ligands as surface passivated materials to confine...
