  • Patent number: 10096752
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method for manufacturing quantum dot color film substrate and quantum dot color film substrate. The method is to form a quantum dot adhesive by mixing a red quantum dot material, a green quantum dot material and a photoinitiator in a thermosetting adhesive. The photoinitiator itself does not destroy fluorescence properties of quantum dot, but the photoinitiator is cleaved and can quenching the fluorescence of quantum dot after UV irradiation. A selective quenching quantum dot layer is obtained after coating a quantum dot adhesive uniformly on a color filter layer, and the light mask is used to irradiate the quantum dot adhesive on the blue sub-pixel region. Free radicals are generated by cleaving photoinitiator and are quenching the quantum dot material directly; the method is capable of meeting requirement of high gamut, simple preparation process and low cost.

  • Patent number: 10096789
    Abstract: Embodiments of the invention pertain to the use of alloyed semiconductor nanocrystals for use in solar cells. The use of alloyed semiconductor nanocrystals offers materials that have a flexible stoichiometry. The alloyed semiconductor may be a ternary semiconductor alloy, such as AxB1-xC or AB1-yCy, or a quaternary semiconductor alloy, such as AxByC1-x-yD, AxB1-xCyD1-y or ABxCyD1-x-y (where A, B, C, and D are different elements). In general, alloys with more than four elements can be used as well, although it can be much harder to control the synthesis and quality of such materials. Embodiments of the invention pertain to solar cells having a layer incorporating two or more organic materials such that percolated paths for one or both molecular species are created. Specific embodiments of the invention pertain to a method for fabricating nanostructured bulk heterojunction that facilitates both efficient exciton diffusion and charge transport.

  • Patent number: 10096795
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide a technology for manufacturing a highly reliable display device at a low cost with high yield. In the present invention, a spacer is formed over a pixel electrode, thereby protecting the pixel electrode layer from a mask in formation of an electroluminescent layer. In addition, since a layer that includes an organic material that has water permeability is sealed in a display device with a sealing material and the sealing material and the layer that includes the organic material are not in contact, deterioration of a light-emitting element due to a contaminant such as water can be prevented. The sealing material is formed in a portion of a driver circuit region in the display device, and thus, the narrower frame margin of the display device can also be accomplished.
