So far, PbS NCs have to be first synthesized with long-alkyl chain organic surface ligands and then be ligand-exchanged with shorter ligands (two-steps) to enable charge transport. However, the initial synthesis of insulated PbS NCs show no necessity and the ligand-exchange process is tedious and extravagant. Herein, we have developed a direct one-step, scalable synthetic method for iodide capped PbS (PbS-I) NC inks. The estimated cost for PbS-I NC inks is decreased to less than 6 ⋅g−1,comparedwith16·g−1, compared with 16 ⋅g−1,comparedwith16·g−1 for conventional methods. Furthermore, based on these PbS-I NCs, photodetector devices show a high detectivity of 1.4 × 1011Jones and solar cells show an air-stable power conversion efficiency (PCE) up to 10%. This scalable and low-cost direct preparation of high-quality PbS-I NC inks may pave a path for the future commercialization of NC based optoelectronics.

These devices combine the possibility of electrical switching, as known from field-effect transistors, with the possibility of light emission in a single device. The properties of field-effect transistors and the prerequisites of LEFETs are reviewed, before motivating the use of colloidal quantum dots for light emission. Recent reports on these quantum dot light-emitting field-effect transistors (QDLEFETs) include both materials emitting in the near infrared and the visible spectral range-underlining the great potential and breadth of applications for QDLEFETs. The way in which LEFETs can further the understanding of the CQD material properties-their photophysics as well as the carrier transport through films-is discussed. In addition, an overview of technology areas offering the potential for large impact is provided.
