Quantum rod films, comprising the aligned quantum rods, emits polarized light that could potentially improve the efficiency of the LCD. In this talk, we will discuss about the High-quality alignment of the QRs showing a high polarization ratio for the PL. We developed these QREF containing red and green QRs, in the same films, for their application in LCD backlights. These films offer wider color gamut and almost two times higher optical efficiency (i.e. ~7.8%) for the conventional LCDs.
