[0399] [equipment]

[0400] Light-emitting devices can be included in various devices. For example, light-emitting devices, authentication devices, or electronic devices that include light-emitting devices can be provided.

[0401] [Light-emitting devices]

[0402] In a light-emitting device, a color filter may be located in at least one direction of travel of the light emitted from the light-emitting device. For example, the light emitted from the light-emitting device may be blue light, but the implementation is not limited to this.

[0403] The first substrate of the light-emitting device may include sub-pixel regions, and the color filter may include color filter regions respectively corresponding to the sub-pixel regions. A pixel defining film may be formed between the sub-pixel regions to define each of the sub-pixel regions. The color filter may include a light-shielding pattern between the color filter regions.

[0404] The color filter region may include a first color filter region emitting a first color light, a second color filter region emitting a second color light, and a third color filter region emitting a third color light, and the first color light, the second color light, and the third color light may have different maximum emission wavelengths from each other. For example, the first color light may be red light, the second color light may be green light, and the third color light may be blue light, but the implementation is not limited to this.

[0405] For example, each color filter region may include quantum dots, or only some color filter regions may include quantum dots.

[0406] In one embodiment, the first color filter region may include red quantum dots, the second color filter region may include green quantum dots, and the third color filter region may not include quantum dots. In this regard, the light-emitting device may emit first light, the first color filter region may absorb the first light to emit a first first color light, the second color filter region may absorb the first light to emit a second first color light, and the third color filter region may allow the first light to pass through. In this regard, the first first color light, the second first color light, and the first light may have different maximum emission wavelengths from each other. The first light may be blue light, the first first color light may be red light, and the second first color light may be green light, but the embodiment is not limited to these.

[0407] In one embodiment, the first color filter region may include red quantum dots, the second color filter region may include green quantum dots, and the third color filter region may include blue quantum dots. The light-emitting device may emit first light, the first color filter region may absorb the first light to emit a first first color light, the second color filter region may absorb the first light to emit a second first color light, and the third color filter region may absorb the first light to emit a third first color light. In this regard, the first first color light, the second first color light, and the third first color light may have different maximum emission wavelengths from each other. The first light may be blue light, the first first color light may be red light, the second first color light may be green light, and the third first color light may be blue light, but the embodiment is not limited to these.

[0408] Quantum dots refer to crystals of semiconductor compounds and can include any material that emits emission wavelengths of different lengths depending on the crystal size. Accordingly, there are no particular limitations on the type of compounds that constitute quantum dots.

[0409] In embodiments, quantum dots may include semiconductor compound materials selected from: group III-VI semiconductor compounds; group I-III-VI semiconductor compounds; group II-VI semiconductor compounds; group III-V semiconductor compounds; group IV-VI semiconductor compounds; group IV elements or compounds; and combinations thereof.

[0410] For example, the group III-VI semiconductor compound may be selected from: binary compounds such as In2S3; for example, the group I-III-VI semiconductor compound may be selected from: ternary compounds selected from AgInS, AgInS2, CuInS, CuInS2 and any mixture thereof, but the implementation is not limited thereto.

[0411] For example, group II-VI semiconductor compounds may be selected from: binary compounds selected from CdSe, CdTe, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, ZnO, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, MgSe, MgS and any mixture thereof; and binary compounds selected from CdSeS, CdSeTe, CdSTe, ZnSeS, ZnSeTe, ZnSTe, HgSeS, HgSeTe, HgSTe, CdZnS, CdZnSe, CdZnTe, C Ternary compounds selected from dHgS, CdHgSe, CdHgTe, HgZnS, HgZnSe, HgZnTe, MgZnSe, MgZnS and any mixture thereof; and quaternary compounds selected from CdZnSeS, CdZnSeTe, CdZnSTe, CdHgSeS, CdHgSeTe, CdHgSTe, HgZnSeS, HgZnSeTe, HgZnSTe and any mixture thereof, but the embodiments are not limited thereto.

[0412] For example, the group III-V semiconductor compound may be selected from: binary compounds selected from GaN, GaP, GaAs, GaSb, AlN, AlP, AlAs, AlSb, InN, InP, InAs, InSb and any mixture thereof; ternary compounds selected from GaNP, GaNAs, GaNSb, GaPAs, GaPSb, AlNP, AlNAs, AlNSb, AlPAs, AlPSb, InGaP, InNP, InNAs, InNSb, InPAs, InPSb and any mixture thereof; and quaternary compounds selected from GaAlNAs, GaAlNSb, GaAlPAs, GaAlPSb, GaInNP, GaInNAs, GaInNSb, GaInPAs, GaInPSb, InAlNP, InAlNAs, InAlNSb, InAlPAs, InAlPSb, GaAlNP and any mixture thereof, but the embodiments are not limited thereto.

[0413] For example, the group IV-VI semiconductor compounds may be selected from: binary compounds selected from SnS, SnSe, SnTe, PbS, PbSe, PbTe and any mixture thereof; ternary compounds selected from SnSeS, SnSeTe, SnSTe, PbSeS, PbSeTe, PbSTe, SnPbS, SnPbSe, SnPbTe and any mixture thereof; and quaternary compounds selected from SnPbSSe, SnPbSeTe, SnPbSTe and any mixture thereof, but the embodiments are not limited thereto.

[0414] For example, Group IV elements or compounds may be selected from: single elements selected from Si, Ge and any mixture thereof; and binary compounds selected from SiC, SiGe and any mixture thereof, but the implementation is not limited thereto.

[0415] Binary, ternary, or quaternary compounds can exist in particles at a uniform concentration, or they can exist in the same particle at different concentration distributions.

[0416] Quantum dots can have a uniform single structure or a dual core-shell structure. For example, the core and shell can comprise different materials. For instance, the materials constituting each of the core and shell can comprise different semiconductor compounds.

[0417] The shell of a quantum dot can serve as a protective layer to maintain semiconductor properties by preventing chemical denaturation of the core, and / or as a charging layer to impart electrophoretic properties to the quantum dot. The shell can be monolayer or multilayer. The interface between the core and shell can have a concentration gradient, where the concentration of elements present in the shell decreases towards the center.

[0418] Examples of shells for quantum dots may include metal or non-metal oxides, semiconductor compounds, or any combination thereof. For example, metal or non-metal oxides may include binary compounds such as SiO2, Al2O3, TiO2, ZnO, MnO, Mn2O3, Mn3O4, CuO, FeO, Fe2O3, Fe3O4, CoO, Co3O4, or NiO, or ternary compounds such as MgAl2O4, CoFe2O4, NiFe2O4, or CoMn2O4, but implementations are not limited thereto. Semiconductor compounds may include CdS, CdSe, CdTe, ZnS, ZnSe, ZnTe, ZnSeS, ZnTeS, GaAs, GaP, GaSb, HgS, HgSe, HgTe, InAs, InP, InGaP, InSb, AlAs, AlP, and AlSb, but implementations are not limited thereto.

[0419] There is no particular limitation on the diameter of quantum dots, but it can be in the range of, for example, from about 1 nm to about 10 nm. By adjusting the size of the quantum dots, the band gap can also be adjusted, thereby obtaining light of various wavelengths in the quantum dot emission layer. Therefore, by using quantum dots of different sizes, displays that emit light of various wavelengths can be realized.

[0420] The size of quantum dots can be selected to emit red, green, and blue light to create a color display. The size of quantum dots can also be configured by combining various colors of light to emit white light.

[0421] Quantum dots can be spherical, conical, multi-armed or cubic nanoparticles, nanotubes, nanowires, nanofibers or nanosheets, but the implementation methods are not limited to these.

[0422] The full width at half maximum (FWHM) of the emission wavelength spectrum of quantum dots can be about 45 nm or less. For example, the FWHM of the emission wavelength spectrum of quantum dots can be about 40 nm or less. For example, the FWHM of the emission wavelength spectrum of quantum dots can be about 30 nm or less. When the FWHM of the emission wavelength spectrum of quantum dots is within this range, color purity or color reproduction can be improved. The light emitted by such quantum dots radiates in all directions, thus providing a wide viewing angle.

[0423] Quantum dots can be synthesized through wet chemical processes, organometallic chemical vapor deposition processes, molecular beam epitaxy processes, or similar processes.

[0424] According to the wet chemical process, precursor materials are added to an organic solvent to grow particulate crystals. During crystal growth, the organic solvent acts as a dispersant for natural surface coordination with the quantum dot crystals and controls the crystal growth. In this respect, compared to vapor deposition processes such as metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), the wet chemical process can be easily performed and allows for control of the growth of inorganic nanoparticles through a low-cost process.

[0425] The first color filter region, the second color filter region, and the third color filter region may each include a scattering component, but the implementation is not limited thereto.

[0426] In addition to the light-emitting device 1 as described above, the light-emitting device may further include a thin-film transistor. The thin-film transistor may include a source electrode, a drain electrode, and an active layer, wherein either the source electrode or the drain electrode may be electrically connected to either the first electrode 110 or the second electrode 190 of the light-emitting device 1.

[0427] Thin-film transistors may further include gate electrodes or gate insulating layers, etc.

[0428] The active layer may include crystalline silicon, amorphous silicon, organic semiconductors, or oxide semiconductors, but the implementation is not limited to these.

[0429] The light-emitting device may further include a seal for sealing the light-emitting device. The seal may be located between the color filter and the light-emitting device. The seal allows the image from the light-emitting device to be realized and prevents external air and moisture from penetrating into the light-emitting device. The seal may be a sealing substrate comprising a transparent glass or plastic substrate. The seal may be a thin-film encapsulation layer comprising organic and / or inorganic layers. When the seal is a thin-film encapsulation layer, the entire display device may be flexible.

[0430] Light-emitting devices can be used as various displays and light sources, etc.

[0431] [Certified Equipment]

[0432] The authentication device may be, for example, a biometric authentication device that uses biometric information from a biometric sample (such as a fingerprint or pupil) to authenticate an individual.

[0433] In addition to the light-emitting device, the certification device may further include a bioassay information collector.

[0434] [Electronic Devices]
