Quantum dot light enhancement substrate and lighting device including same
First Claim
1. A component comprising a substrate comprising a material that is transparent to light within a predetermined range of wavelengths, a color conversion material comprising quantum dots disposed over a predetermined region of a surface of the substrate, and a conductive material disposed over at least a portion of the color conversion material, the conductive material being transparent to light within a second predetermined range of wavelengths, wherein the component further includes one or more outcoupling features disposed on a surface of the substrate opposite the color conversion material.

Abstract
A component including a substrate, at least one layer including a color conversion material comprising quantum dots disposed over the substrate, and a layer comprising a conductive material (e.g., indium-tin-oxide) disposed over the at least one layer. (Embodiments of such component are also referred to herein as a QD light-enhancement substrate (QD-LES).) In certain preferred embodiments, the substrate is transparent to light, for example, visible light, ultraviolet light, and/or infrared radiation. In certain embodiments, the substrate is flexible. In certain embodiments, the substrate includes an outcoupling element (e.g., a microlens array). A film including a color conversion material comprising quantum dots and a conductive material is also provided. In certain embodiments, a component includes a film described herein. Lighting devices are also provided. In certain embodiments, a lighting device includes a film described herein. In certain embodiments, a lighting device includes a component described herein.
