Abstract
The composite CdSe/ZnS core – shell mixed with pyrene molecules in polymethyl meth-acrylate (PMMA) polymer was used to generate intense white light when illuminated by InGaN/GaN UV LED. The addition of pyrene molecules in low concentration to the core – shell system tuned the chromaticity coordinates to (0.25, 0.34) and increased the intensity of the emit-ted white light. This improvement was attributed to the overlap of pyreneexcimer emission with the absorption spectrum of CdSe/ZnS core – shell which leads to a cold white light generation. The synthesis of core – shell nanoparticles, with the pyrene molecules in PMMA films, is pre-sented. The photoluminescence spectra of the pyrene, CdSe/ZnS core – shell and their mixture composite in PMMA were tested. The Gaussian fit was used to determine the chromaticity coor-dinate of the emitted white light.
