Abstract
The last part of this dissertation explores the applications of dye doped NPs with optimized compatibility between NPs and the silicone matrix as color converters. A unique design of concentric silica-dye-silica structures provide confinement against dye motions and π-π intermolecular aggregations of the conjugated dye molecules. The result was an improvement in the stability of the dye doped silica NPs. The dye-functionalized NPs and their nanocomposites open up new opportunities in the design of next-generation LEDs.
