MONOLITHICALLY INTEGRATED NANOEMITTER LIGHT SOURCE ASSEMBLY

Abstract:

Low-cost and high-efficiency monolithically integrated nanoscale-based light emitter techniques can be used in, for example, electronic display applications and spectroscopy applications using spectrometers. Using various techniques, a light emitter can include quantum dots (QDs) and can be arranged to emit light in mono-band (e.g., one wavelength) or in broad-band (e.g., more than one wavelength) such as in the visible to mid-infrared range, e.g., from about 365 nm to about 10 .mu.m. The light emitter nanotechnology can be based on a nanoscale wafer manufacturing for displays and spectroscopy applications.
