Semiconductor nanoparticle, prodcution method thereof, electronic device including the same

Abstract

A semiconductor nanoparticle, a method of manufacturing the semiconductor nanoparticle, and an electronic device including the nanoparticle are provided. The semiconductor nanoparticle includes silver, indium, gallium, and sulfur, wherein the semiconductor nanoparticle is configured to emit a green light, wherein the semiconductor nanoparticle has a relative mole value of zinc as defined by Equation 1 that is greater than or equal to about 0.25 and less than or equal to about 0.9: Relative ⁢ mole ⁢ value ⁢ of ⁢ zinc = [ Zn ] / ( [ Ag ] + [ In ] + [ Ga ] + [ Zn ] ) Equation ⁢ 1 wherein, in Equation 1, [Ag], [In], [Ga], and [Zn] are molar amounts of the silver, the indium, the gallium, and the zinc in the semiconductor nanoparticle, respectively, and wherein a mole ratio of gallium to indium is greater than about 2.5:1 and less than about 5.6:1.
