Title: Methods of forming colloidal nanocrystal-based thin film devices

Abstract

Methods of forming colloidal nanocrystal (NC)-based thin film devicesare disclosed. The methods include the steps of depositing a dispersion of NCs on a substrate to form a NC thin-film, wherein at least a portion of the NCs is capped with chalcogenocyanate (xCN)-based ligands; and doping the NC thin-film with a metal.
