Abstract
In this study, a strongly reflective and photoluminescent (PL) poly(lactic-co-glycolic acid) quantum dot (QD) hybrid nanofiber (PQHN) structure is introduced to enhance the luminous efficacy of QD-phosphor hybrid white light-emitting diodes (QD-WLEDs). As the thickness of PQHN film increases, the PL is found to continuously increase, exhibiting a maximum peak intensity at 120 μm, which is 1.92 times that at 12 μm, and showing the highest diffuse reflectance of 94.4% at 640 nm. Consequently, while using the QD-WLEDs, the PQHN structure achieves a 53.8% improvement in luminous flux compared with the traditional structure under a similar correlated color temperature (CCT) of 3,540 K, achieving a high luminous efficacy of 202.11 lm W-1 for QD-WLEDs. In addition, the maximum deviation of the CCT is only 11 K when the current is changed from 50 to 950 mA, demonstrating good stability. Therefore, the PQHN films have great potential in lighting systems as a hybrid functional film including light conversion and reflectance.

Abstract
In terms of their use in displays, quantum dots (QDs) exhibit several advantages, including high illumination efficiency and color rendering, low-cost, and capacity for mass production. Furthermore, they are environmentally friendly. Excellent luminescence and charge transport properties of QDs led to their application in QD-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs), which have attracted considerable attention in display and solid-state lighting applications. In this review, we discuss the applications of QDs which are used on color conversion filter that exhibit high efficiency in white LEDs, full-color micro-LED devices, and liquid-type structure devices, among others. Furthermore, we discuss different QD printing processes and coating methods to achieve the full-color micro-LED. With the rise in popularity of wearable and see-through red, green, and blue (RGB) full-color displays, the flexible substrate is considered as a good potential candidate. The anisotropic conductive film method provides a small controllable linewidth of electrically conductive particles. Finally, we discuss the advanced application for flexible full-color and highly efficient QD micro-LEDs. The general conclusion of this study also involves the demand for a more straightforward QD deposition technique, whose breakthrough is expected.
