Effects of Zn2+ and Ga3+ doping on the quantum yield of cluster-derived InP quantum dots

As the commercial display market grows, the demand for low-toxicity, highly emissive, and size-tunable semiconducting nanoparticles has increased. Indium phosphide quantum dots represent a promising solution to these challenges; unfortunately, they typically suffer from low inherent emissivity resulting from charge carrier trapping. Strategies to improve the emissive characteristics of indium phosphide often involve zinc incorporation into or...
