Core shell quantum dot, production method thereof, and electronic device including the same

Abstract

A quantum dot including a core including a first semiconductor nanocrystal including zinc, selenium, and tellurium, and a semiconductor nanocrystal shell disposed on the core, the semiconductor nanocrystal shell including zinc, and selenium, sulfur, or a combination thereof, wherein the quantum dot does not include cadmium, a mole ratio of tellurium relative to selenium in the first semiconductor nanocrystal is greater than about 1:1, a mole ratio of a sum of selenium and sulfur relative to in the quantum dot is greater than about 1:1, a wavelength of a maximum emission peak of the quantum dot is in a range of about 500 nanometers (nm) to about 550 nm, and the quantum dot has quantum efficiency (QY) of greater than or equal to about 30%, a quantum dot-polymer composite including the quantum dot, a display device including the quantum dot-polymer composite, and an electroluminescent device including the quantum dot.
