Perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) are seen as the credible alternative to traditional QDs ascolor converter in liquid crystal display (LCD). Unfortunately, PeQDs sufferfrom instability and color separation, and the prepared PeQDs enhanced films(PQDFs) need the protection of expensive barrier layers, which significantly increases price and limits their application. Herein, large‐area yellow monolithic PQDF is fabricated with both green CsPbBr3 and red CsPbBr1I2QDs encapsulated in the dual matrices of inorganic glass and polypropylene (PP) via an industrialized melt extruding & rolling method. The PQDF shows high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of 92% and narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 19 nm (green) and 33 nm (red). Importantly, the bare PQDF without barrier layers can pass harsh aging test at 85 °C/85% RH and reach anoperating T90 lifetime over 1000 h. Finally, a white backlit unit is designed by coupling yellow monolithic PQDF with blue light guide panel, and the constructed prototype display shows superior color rendering performance forits narrow green/red emissions, reaching a color gamut of 110% National Television System Committee (NTSC). This work provides a novel and easy‐to‐industrialize route to prepare PQDFs to realize their commercial application in backlit display. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Robust amorphous glass protected CsPbBr3 (CsPbBr3@glass) perovskite quantum dots (PeQDs) with ultra‐pure green emission and superior long‐term stability are highly desirable for developing wide‐color‐gamut liquid crystal displays. However, most of the reported CsPbBr3@glass nanocomposites are subject to low external quantum efficiency (EQE). This work demonstrates that ZrO2 additive has an "accumulation" effect on the borosilicate glass network structure to promote in situ nucleation/growth of PeQDs inside glass rather than self‐crystallization. This effect is beneficial in reducing surface defects, improving the quality of PeQDs, and thus boosting radiative recombination of excitons. As a consequence, the as‐prepared CsPbBr3@glass shows a record EQE of up to 75% and can pass the accelerated aging tests at 85 °C/85% RH for 1000 h and blue light irradiation over 2000 h. Finally, a prototype display using CsPbBr3@glass‐based straight‐down backlit unit is designed and gains more favorable responses in blind selection tests for its high brightness of 2647 cd m−2 and high color purity of 88%. The findings will pave the way for realizing the commercial application of CsPbBr3@glass nanocomposite in PeQDs‐converted backlit display. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

High‐quality backlit display puts forward urgent demand for color‐converting materials. Recently, metal halide perovskites (MHPs) with full spectral tunability, high photoluminescence quantum yields (PLQYs), and high color purity have found potential application in wide‐color‐gamut display. Regrettably, naked MHPs suffer from long‐term instable issue and cannot pass harsh stability tests. Herein, amorphous‐glass‐protected green/red CsPbX3 quantum dots (QDs) are prepared by elaborately optimizing glass structure, perovskite concentration, and in situ crystallization. PLQYs of green CsPbBr3@glass and red CsPbBr1.5I1.5@glass reach 94% and 78%, respectively, which are the highest ones of CsPbX3@glass composites reported so far and comparable to colloidal counterparts. Benefited from complete isolation of QDs from external environment by glass network, CsPbX3@glass can endure harsh commercial standard aging tests of 85 °C/85%RH and blue‐light‐irradiation, which are applied to construct white light‐emitting diodes (wLEDs) with high external quantum efficiency of 13.8% and ultra‐high luminance of 500 000 cd m−2. Accordingly, the perovskite wLED arrays‐based backlit unit and a prototype display device are designed for the first time, showing more vivid and wide‐color‐gamut feature benefited from narrowband emissions of CsPbX3 QDs. This work highlights practical application of CsPbX3@glass composite as an efficient and stable light color converter in backlit display. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Laser‐driven projection display puts forward urgent demand for color converter materials to achieve wide‐color‐gamut and high‐quality image presentation. In this study, a hierarchical structure quantum dots‐in‐glass film (QiGF) is fabricated via co‐sintering stable green/red‐emitting CsPbX3@glass (X3 = Br3, Br1.5I1.5) and commercial low‐melting glass on the sapphire substrate. Benefiting from the well‐retained optical properties of CsPbX3 quantum dots in amorphous glass and high thermal conductivity, QiGF succeeded in inhibiting luminescence saturation after 20 W mm−2 blue laser irradiation. A brand‐new white‐lighting source designed by coupling a blue laser with a pattern "QiGF wheel" produced ultra‐narrow blue/green/red tri‐color emissions and total luminous flux of 146 lm. Accordingly, a QiGF‐converted laser projection system is successfully designed for the first time, showing more natural and real color restoration for its wide color gamut display feature (157% of conventional light‐emitting diode projection and 107% of NTSC standard). The present study highlights the practical application of CsPbX3 quantum dots composite as an efficient laser‐driven color converter in projection display. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
