Novel use of a cladded quantum dot array layer serving as a waveguide channel by sandwiching it between two cladding layers comprised of lower index of refraction materials is described to form Si nanophotonic devices and integrated circuits. The photonic device structure is compatible with Si nanoelectronics using conventional, quantum dot gate (QDG), and quantum dot channel (QDC) FET based logic, memories, and other integrated circuits.

A wavelength conversion module includes a substrate, a barrier wall structural layer, a plurality of wavelength conversion layers and a plurality of quantum dot particles. The substrate has a surface. The barrier wall structural layer is disposed on the surface and defines a plurality of recesses. Each of the wavelength conversion layers is located in one of the recesses. The quantum dot particles are disposed in the wavelength conversion layers. A backlight module having the wavelength conversion module and a manufacturing method of the wavelength conversion module are also provided.

Liquid ink compositions containing quantum dots for optoelectronic display applications are provided. Also provided are solid films formed by drying the ink compositions, optical elements incorporating the solid films, display devices incorporating the optical elements, and methods of forming the solid films, optical elements, and the devices. Liquid ink compositions and solid films made by drying the liquid ink compositions include one or more blue light-absorbing materials in combination with red light-emitting QDs or green light-emitting QDs.
