However, in case of Cadmium-based QDs, Cd is toxic element, which would cause serious restrictions. Therefore, our researches focused on developing non-toxic QDs, which include CuInS2 and InP QDs and their applications. First, we synthesized CuInS2 (CIS) I-III-VI type quantum dots (QDs) under different growth times by the facile solvothermal method. The quantum yield (QY) can be enhanced to 85% by coating ZnS shell at outside of CIS, forming the CIS/ZnS core/shell QDs. CIS/ZnS QDs, show high efficiency and large full width at half-maximum (FWHM). Thus, these non-toxic QDs as light-emitting diodes (LEDs) converters for illumination are a good candidate. We also incorporated red emitting CIS/ZnS QDs into the fabricated white LEDs to improve the color rendering index (CRI) value (Ra = 86). We further synthesized CIS QDs with various [Cu]/[In] ratio by solvothermal method. The band gap and emission energies of CIS QDs are found to be systematically increased with decreasing Cu content. ZnS shell coated of CIS/ZnS core/shell QDs emit quite tunable wavelengths with high QY, depending on the composition. We further investigated the optical properties, lattice structure and thermal stability of CIS and CIS/ZnS core/shell QDs. By combining with high QY CIS/ZnS core/shell QDs as color converters with blue-emitting LEDs and green phosphors Ba2SiO4:Eu2+, the QDs-assisted LEDs with high CRI of near 90 are fabricated. Meanwhile, The potential to use CuInS2/ZnS QDs in LEDs is demonstrated by fabricating electroluminescent devices. We synthesized InP and InP/ZnS QDs and characterized the fluorescence. Additionally, dental resins containing InP QDs as luminophores and in vitro cytotoxicity of InP QDs-embedded resin was investigated by employing human gingival fibroblast cell, showing it’s a good biocompatible for dental material.Contents 摘要 III Abstract IV Chapter 1.
