A panorama of rivers and mountains: emitters and matrix

A landscape painting on a gold silk background, depicting a vast range of towering, cerulean blue and emerald green mountain peaks. Detailed villages, bridges, and tiny fishing boats are nestled in the valleys and on the wide green river that flows across the bottom. Vertical calligraphy and two red seal stamps are positioned in the upper left corner.

Label: A panorama of rivers and mountains: emitters and matrix

Description: This art piece originated from atomic force microscopy (AFM) showing the morphology of the composite optoelectronic materials, where the “mountains” correspond to the matrix material Cs4PbBr; while the “rivers and hills” represent the emitters CSPbBr3, who is held in the matrix material to fulfill extraordinary light-emitting performance. The light emitting diode (LED) based on this material features 200 times higher brightness than a typical computer monitor. The author paid tribute to one of the greatest works of ancient Chinese painting “a panorama of rivers and mountains”.
