"trained on how different solvents' properties (such as viscosity, density, vapor pressure) impact quantum dots' structural alignment... predicts optimal, complex solvent blend allowing nm-scale particles to arrange themselves uniformly/ densely... doubled light-emitting layer efficiency... this data-driven platform can be readily adapted to accelerate the development of other next-generation electronics, including organic LEDs (OLEDs) and solar cells TVs, smartphones, monitors"
