Abstract
We have demonstrated an efficient inverted CdSe/CdS/ZnS core/shell quantum-dot light-emitting device (QD-LED) using a solution-processed sol–gel and ZnO nanoparticle composite layer as an electron-injection layer with controllable morphology and investigated the electroluminescence mechanism. The introduction of the ZnO layer can lead to the formation of spin-coated uniform QD films and fabrication of high-luminance QD-LEDs. The layer improves the balance of charge injection due to its lower electron mobility relative to the ZnO layer. These results offer a practicable platform for the realization of a trade-off between the luminance and efficiency in the inverted QD-LEDs with composites as the electron contact layer.
