Abstract:
It is suggested to use a new nanocomposite material–nanostructures of copper-doped zinc sulfide in a matrix of porous aluminum oxide–as a light-emitting layer of electroluminescent sources of light. The material was deposited by thermal evaporation in a vacuum. The microstructure of the layers, impurity distribution in the electroluminescent-phosphor layer, and electroluminescence spectra at various copper concentrations in ZnS:Cu were studied.
