dc.description.abstract | The continuous and concerted development of colloidal quantum dot light-emitting diodes over the past two decades has established them as a bedrock technology for the next generation of displays. However, a fundamental issue that limits the performance of these devices is the quenching of photoluminescence due to excess charges from conductive charge transport layers. Although device designs have leveraged various workarounds, doing so often comes at the cost of limiting efficient charge injection. Here we demonstrate that high-field terahertz (THz) pulses can dramatically brighten quenched QDs on metallic surfaces, an effect that persists for minutes after THz irradiation. This phenomenon is attributed to the ability of the THz field to remove excess charges, thereby reducing trion and nonradiative Auger recombination. Our findings show that THz technologies can be used to suppress and control such undesired nonradiative decay, potentially in a variety of luminescent materials for future device applications. | en_US |
