High-Bandwidth White-Light System Combining a Micro-LED with Perovskite Quantum Dots for Visible Light Communication

摘要

This work proposes a high-bandwidth white-light system consisting of a blue gallium nitride (GaN) micro-LED (mu LED) exciting yellow-emitting CsPbBr1.8I1.2 perovskite quantum dots (YQDs) for high-speed real-time visible light communication (VLC). The packaged 80 mu m x 80 mu m blue-emitting mu LFD has, a modulation bandwidth of similar to 160 MHz and a peak emission wavelength of similar to 445 nm. The achievable bandwidth of the white-light system is up to 85 MHz in the absence of filters and equalization technology. Meanwhile, the bandwidth of the YQDs as a color converter is as high as 73 MHz with the blue GaN mu LED as the pump source. A maximum data rate of 300 Mbps can be achieved by taking advantage of the high bandwidth of the white-light system using the non-return-to-zero on-off keying (NRZ-OOK) modulation scheme. The resultant bit-error rate is 2.0 x 10(-3), well beneath the forward error-correction criterion of 3.8 x 10(-3) required for error-free data transmission. In addition, the YQDs which we proposed as a color converter possess high stability for VLC. After half a year, the achievable bandwidths of the white-light system and the YQDs are still up to 83 and 70 MHz, respectively. This study provides the direction of developing high-bandwidth white-light system for both high-efficiency solid-state lighting and high-speed VLC.
