← ScienceWhich phenomenon causes a quantum-dot LED efficiency to decrease significantly at high drive currents?
A)Auger recombination of excitons✓
B)Förster resonance energy transfer
C)Quantum confinement Stark effect
D)Surface plasmon polariton coupling
💡 Explanation
When electrons and holes are driven excessively into quantum dots, Auger recombination becomes dominant because the electron-hole pair recombines, and give its energy to another electron or hole. Therefore non-radiative Auger process dominates, reducing light output rather than Förster, Stark, or polariton effects which happen under differing quantum conditions.
