Abstract
Abstract Electroluminescence (EL) loss mechanisms in quantum dot light‐emitting devices (QLEDs), especially blue (B) emitting ones, remain unclear. Here, it is identified that – aside from some partially reversible deterioration in the photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of the quantum dots‐emissive layer (QDs‐EML) – the rapid EL loss in B‐QLEDs is caused mainly by an increase in electron leakage‐across the hole transport layer (HTL) and a subsequent damage to the hole injection layer (HIL), resulting in a deterioration in hole supply to the QDs EML. EL and PL measurements on devices with marking layers (MLs) placed in different locations uncover that electron supply to the QDs‐EML is easier than hole supply in B‐QLEDs in general, causing the electron (e)/hole (h) to be >1 and significant electron leakage to the HIL, even in fresh devices. Under electrical stress, this electron leakage increases further, causing the charge imbalance in the QDs‐EML to deteriorate further and more electrons to reach the HIL. The selective peel‐off‐and‐rebuilt experiment verifies the HIL changes and the role of electrons in inducing them. Modified devices with reduced electron supply show 30X longer EL lifetime, proving the role of excess electrons in the rapid EL loss in B‐QLEDs.

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 it
