A research team led by Prof. Chen Hsueh-Shih of the Department of Materials Science &amp; Engineering at National Tsing Hua University in Taiwan has recently developed the world&#8217;s first inkjet technique for using saltwater to encapsulate QD materials, which not only resists water and oxygen corrosion, but can also be uniformly printed as a flexible plastic film on a micro LED array for use in high-resolution bendable screens for mobile phones, glasses, etc.&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n Click here for original story, <a href=\"https:\/\/phys.org\/news\/2020-10-scientists-encapsulate-quantum-dots-salt.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">Scientists encapsulate quantum dots in salt<\/a>&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\n&#013;<br \/>\nSource: Phys.org&#013;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It&#8217;s widely known that submerging a pared apple in saltwater prevents oxidation and browning, but did you know that saltwater can also protect fragile quantum dot (QD) materials?
