Core-shell PbS-CdS quantum dots enhance the peak external quantum efficiency of shortwave-infrared light-emitting devices by up to 50-100-fold (compared with core-only PbS devices). This is more than double the efficiency of previous quantum-dot light-emitting devices operating at wavelengths beyond 1 μm, and results from the passivation of the PbS cores by the CdS shells against in situ photoluminescence quenching.
