Single-Precursor Intermediate Shelling Enables Bright, Narrow Line Width InAs/InZnP-Based QD Emitters
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Bright, narrow spectrum infrared emitters, particularly Cd- and Pb-free materials, are of interest for bioimaging, photodetection, and telecommunications. InAs-based quantum dots (QDs) are promising emitters in this spectral range; however, efforts to increase the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) tend to broaden the PL line width as a consequence of interfacial defect formation when thick shells, lattice-mismatched with the core, are employed. Here we report that developing a single-precursor complex for InZnP growth enables uniform shell growth that maintains the excellent size dispersion (6%) of the cores. The introduction of this intermediate layer is key to facilitate the subsequent growth of different shells to improve radiative recombination without sacrificing size uniformity. The growth of InAs/InZnP/ZnSe leads to a PL full-width at half-maximum (fwhm) of 100 meV at 1.12 eV with a PLQY of 14%. We then further introduce an additional GaP layer to increase the radiative/nonradiative relative rate. InAs/InZnP/GaP/ZnSe QDs reach a PLQY of 23% while maintaining a narrow fwhm.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
