Description
Opportunity:
Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory (LLNL), operated by the Lawrence Livermore National Security (LLNS), LLC under contract no. DE-AC52-07NA27344 (Contract 44) with the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE), is offering the opportunity to enter into a collaboration to further develop and commercialize its novel methods to fabricate nanocrystal films for electronic and optoelectronic devices.
Background:
Ordered nanocrystal superlattices are emerging materials that have widespread applications in photodetectors, light emitting devices, solid state lasers, solar cells, thermoelectric devices, field effect transistors, and memory devices. The degree of order in the superlattices is crucial for their applications. Currently, nanocrystal superlattices are fabricated with solvent evaporation methods, such as dip coating, spinning coating, spray coating, drop casting, ink jet printing. These processes trade off fabrication speed and crystalline quality of the films; fast fabrication results in disorder or poorly ordered superlattices, whereas a highly ordered superlattice often requires a fairly long fabrication time. Colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals are important building blocks for low-cost, solution-processed electronic devices with tunable functionalities. Thus, a fast and effective method to create nanocrystal films that retains structural ordering is needed.
Description:
LLNL researchers have developed two approaches to fabricate nanocrystal superlattices for electronic and optoelectronic devices. Nanocrystals covered by this approach include, but are not limited to, metal nanocrystals, semiconducting nanocrystals (quantum dots), and insulating nanocrystals, or a combination of those.
LLNL-s patented approach uses electric fields to drive and control assembly (US Patent No. 11, 499, 248). This innovative method increases local nanocrystal concentration, initiating nucleation and growth into ordered sup...
