Quantum dots (QDs) composed of Ag-In-Ga-S solid solution had a tunable energy gap (Eg) that increased with an increase in the Ga/In ratio. These QDs exhibited a sharp band-edge photoluminescence peak by GaSx shell coating. Light-emitting diodes fabricated with these QDs exhibited a bright electroluminescence peak, with the color tunable from yellow to green to blue by varying their Eg.
