A widespread practical application is using quantum dot enhancement film (QDEF) layer to improve the LED backlighting in LCD TVs.Light from a blue LED backlight is converted by QDs to relatively pure red and green, so that this combination of blue, green and red light incurs less blue-green crosstalk and light absorption in the color filters after the LCD screen, thereby increasing useful ...
