The researchers have designed good, color-controllable white light devices from quantum dots, which are little semiconductors simply a few billionths of a meter in size that were more efficient and had better color saturation than normal LEDs, and would reproduce daylight conditions during a single light.

HIGHLIGHTS
The researchers have designed the next-generation smart lighting system
Use of three lighting colors in LEDs will help to reproduce daylight accurately
The widespread of smart lighting systems will have a positive impact on human health

The researchers, from the University of Cambridge had designed the next-generation smart lighting system by using the combination of nanotechnology, color science, advanced computational method, electronics, and a unique fabrication method.

The team had founded that the use of three primary lighting colors in typical LEDs would help to reproduce daylight more accurately. The early tests of the new style showed wonderful color rendering, a much wider operating range than current smart lighting technology, and wider spectrum of white light customization.

As the availability and characteristics of ambient light would be connected with wellbeing, the widespread of smart lighting systems would have a positive impact on human health since these systems would be able to reply to individual mood. Well, smart lighting would even respond to circadian rhythms that would regulate the daily sleep-wake cycle, in order to get the reddish-white in the morning and evening, and bluish-white throughout the day.

Quantum dots were being studied and developed as light sources since the 1990s, because of their high color tunability and color purity. As per their unique optoelectronic properties, they would show wonderful color performance in both the wide color controllability and high color rendering capability.

The Cambridge researchers have developed a design for quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QD-LED) primarily based on the next-generation good white lighting. The QD-LED system usually used red, green, and blue so as to mimic white light more accurately. By selecting quantum dots of a particular size which would be between 3 and 30 nanometres in diameter, the researchers were able to overcome a number of the sensible limitations of LEDs and would achieve the emission wavelengths that they required to check their predictions.

The team gave the validation for the design by making brand new device architecture of QD-LED based white lighting. Well, the test showed the wonderful color rendering, a wider operating range than current technology, and a larger spectrum of white light shade customization.

The design would pave the way to more efficient and more accurate smart lighting. Within a LEDs smart bulb, the three LEDs should be controlled singularly to get a given color. Well, in the QD-LED system, all the quantum dots were driven by one common control voltage to get the full color temperature range.
