Incorporation of custom - designed nanomaterial into nanophotonic devices and components in optoelectronic systems enables the realization of optical functionalities favorably controlled with external optical and electrical ...

Semiconductor quantum nanocrystals (NCs) provide the ability to control and fine-tune peak emission wavelength using the size effect, with a broad optical absorption band (excitation window) increasing toward UV wavelength ...

Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets (NPLs) have recently emerged as a new class of colloidal nanocrystals. NPLs are quasi two-dimensional nanocrystals having atomically flat surfaces and have unique properties such as ...

Solution-processed semiconductor nanocrystals have attracted increasingly greater interest in optoelectronics including color conversion and enrichment in quality lighting and display backlighting. Optical properties of ...

White light sources using discrete emitters require careful design and optimization. The first step of the design should be determining the intended use of the light source so that application specific requirements can be ...

In this part of this brief, we summarize the metrics that need to be considered for designing light sources. We start with metrics on the shade of color and then continue with color rendering and photometry.

In this Chapter, we summarize the structure of the human eye and introduce the sensitivity functions of various photoreceptors and present the visual regimes and corresponding eye sensitivity functions.
