ELECTRONIC DISPLAYS USING OPTICALLY PUMPED LUMINESCENT SEMICONDUCTOR NANOCRYSTALS

摘要

A multicolor electronic display is based on an array of luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals. Nanocrystals which emit tight of different colors are grouped into pixels. The nanocrystals are optically pumped to produce a multicolor display. Different sized nanocrystals are used to produce the different colors. A variety of pixel addressing systems can be used.

主权项

1. A multicolor display apparatus, comprising:
an array of semiconductor nanocrystals arranged to fowl a plurality of pixels of different colors; a pixel addressing system operatively associated with the nanocrystal array for selectively optically exciting the nanocrystals to produce a luminescent color pattern of pixels.
