Blue‐Emitting ZnSe(Te) Quantum Dots and Light‐Emitting Diodes

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
 . ABSTRACT Zn‐based quantum dots (QDs) have been regarded as the most promising Cd‐free candidates for blue‐emitting applications. ZnSe QDs exhibit an ultra‐narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM), high photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY), and excellent environmental stability, making them ideal for blue‐violet emitters.

Hind feet position score: A novel trait to genetically reduce lameness incidence

JDS Communications
Lameness is an important health and welfare issue that causes considerable economic losses in dairy herds. The objective of this study was to investigate whether the hind feet position score (HFPS) can be used as an auxiliary trait for genetic evaluation
