Description
Yeyun Bae and seven co-authors tackle a trade-off in transparent quantum dot displays, which need electrodes that pass light yet inject charge well. Ultrathin silver films conduct well but grow in islands, breaking continuity and raising resistance. Seed layers fix continuity, yet their effect on charge injection was little studied.
Their answer is a double seed layer of aluminum and molybdenum oxide. One part keeps transparency and low resistance, while the aluminum improves electron injection. Devices using it doubled in efficiency and lasted three times longer than single-layer controls. A two-inch working display shows the approach can scale beyond laboratory samples.
