Nanomanufacturing. Key control characteristics. Luminescent nanomaterials. Quantum efficiency | Status: Current, Under review

1 Scope This part of IEC 62607 describes the procedures to be followed and precautions to be observed when performing reproducible measurements of the quantum efficiency of luminescent nanomaterials. Luminescent nanomaterials covered by this method include nano-objects such as quantum dots, nanophosphors, nanoparticles, nanofibers, nanocrystals, nanoplates, and structures containing these materials. The nanomaterials may be dispersed in either a liquid state (e.g., colloidal dispersion of quantum dots) or solid-state (e.g., nanofibers containing luminescent nanoparticles). This standard covers both relative measurements of liquid state luminescent nanomaterials and absolute measurements of both solid and liquid state nanomaterials.
