The programme begins with integrated light-emitting and photodetecting devices, then traces their materials foundation through purification and micro-pixel fabrication.

Figure to be added A real, publication-cleared device or measurement figure is still required.

01

Integrated light-emitting and photodetecting intelligent devices

Question
How can carrier regulation support illumination and photodetection within one multifunctional perovskite LED platform?
Approach
Contribute to carrier-regulation strategy and dual-function device construction for an information-oriented white-LED project, then evaluate both LED and photodetector operating modes.
Significance
This work is ongoing. Quantitative results are withheld until the related paper is published.

02

Purification engineering for efficient quantum-dot LEDs

Question
How can purification remove synthesis residues without destabilising perovskite quantum dots or stripping functional ligands?
Approach
Relate purification-solvent polarity to ligand concentration, phase stability, defect states and charge transport, then validate the material changes in QLEDs.
Significance
The reported devices exceeded 23% external quantum efficiency and established a materials-to-device picture of fine purification.

Selected work

Published multi-panel figure explaining continuous-wave laser writing of perovskite at oxide Micro-QLED pixels
Published Figure 1 from Advanced Functional Materials (2025), DOI 10.1002/adfm.202413811.

03

Mask-free laser writing of Micro-QLED pixels

Question
Can electroluminescent quantum-dot pixels be patterned rapidly at ultra-high density without a conventional mask-and-etch sequence?
Approach
Use continuous-wave laser writing to transform selected perovskite regions into oxide isolation structures around the remaining emissive pixels.
Significance
The work demonstrated RGB Micro-QLED arrays with pixel densities from 2,000 to 5,000 PPI; the figure also illustrates arrays up to 10,000 PPI.
