Top emission can enhance luminance, color purity, and panel-manufacturing compatibility for emissive displays. Still, top-emitting quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) suffer from poor stability, low light outcoupling, and non-negligible viewing-angle dependence because, for QLEDs with non-red emission, the electrically optimum device structur...

To industrialize printed full-color displays based on quantum-dot light-emitting diodes, one must explore the degradation mechanism and improve the operational stability of blue electroluminescence. Here, we report that although state-of-the-art blue quantum dots, with monotonically-graded core/shell/shell structures, feature near-unity photolumine...

ZnO-based electron-transporting layers (ETLs) have been universally used in quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs) for high performance. The active surface chemistry of ZnO nanoparticles (NPs), however, leads to QLEDs with positive aging and unacceptably poor shelf stability. SnO2 is a promising candidate for ETLs with less reactivity, but NP ag...

Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC) utilizing the targeting properties of antibodies and therapeutic effects of drugs have emerged a rapid development in recent years. However, the relatively low drug loading capacity of ADC systems commonly results in failure in delivering enough chemical drugs to the desired areas given a safe antibody dose, therefore...

In this study, the adsorption behavior of monovalent cations Li⁺, Na⁺, and Cs⁺ in LiCl, NaCl, and CsCl solutions, respectively, on montmorillonite and quartz surfaces were investigated to reveal adsorption mechanisms at the subatomic scale. The results showed that on the permanently charged montmorillonite surface, both strong-force zero-order and...

... Quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLED) that emit light from the bottom substrate have achieved high external quantum efficiency (EQE) [2][3][4] . However, to meet the requirements of traditional and emerging applications, QLEDs need even higher luminance and longer operational lifetime 5 , which are more directly determined by current efficiency (CE) than EQE. While the multijunction (or tandem) structure is a standard CEenhancing solution, adding functional layers and interfaces significantly reduces device stability 6,7 . ...
... Figure 5b demonstrates the conventional bottom-emitting structure, in which light is generated from the QD EML and traverses the transparent substrate. [64] In this arrangement, the bottom electrode typically functions as the anode, upon which the HIL and HTL are sequentially deposited. As illustrated in the typical energy level alignment diagram in Figure 5g, considering the potential energy barrier between the bottom electrode and the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level of QDs, it is essential to construct a stepped arrangement to mitigate the barrier, thereby improving hole injection efficiency. ...
... ONconjugation to targeting ligands holds the potential to solve this challenge (6)(7)(8)(9) , and a highly successful example of this is the conjugation of N -acetylgalactosamine ( GalNAc ) to ASOs or siRNAs, which allows tissue specific uptake to hepatocytes in the liver (10)(11)(12) . Other ON conjugates have also showed potential, such as conjugates to fatty acids (13)(14)(15) , cholesterol ( 16 ,17 ) , antibodies (18)(19)(20) or peptides (21)(22)(23) . Specific delivery of ASOs to pancreatic β-cells was recently achieved by conjugation of glucagon like peptide-1 ( GLP1 ) analogues, which showed efficient ligand-induced internalization upon binding to the GLP1 receptor ( GLP1R ) ( 24 ,25 ) . ...
... covalent bonding between surface O-atom and K + also could be produced at charge clay particle surface (Li et al. 2019). Indeed, many studies have confirmed that, the polarization induced covalent bonding force played an important role in the interaction between metal cations and clay mineral surface (Du et al. 2016(Du et al. , 2017Li et al. 2021aLi et al. , b, 2022Deng and Li 2022;Liu et al. 2022). For instance, based on the above theory, Du et al. (2017) studied the adsorption energies of Cs + in the permanently charged clay mineral, and indicated that the polarization induced covalent energies of Cs + would present. ...
