Patent attributes
The purpose of the present invention to provide a wavelength conversion layer containing semiconductor nanoparticles substantially containing no Cd, and which have an increased absorption coefficient to blue light while maintaining high stability. A wavelength conversion layer containing semiconductor nanoparticles, wherein the wavelength conversion layer can convert light having a wavelength of 450 nm to light having a peak wavelength of 500 nm to 550 nm, or light having a peak wavelength of 600 nm to 660 nm; each of the semiconductor nanoparticles contained in the wavelength conversion layer has a core and a shell having one or more layers; the core contains In and P; and at least one layer of the shell is ZnXTe (wherein X represents Se or S, or both Se and S).
