Over the last two decades, quantum-dot light-emitting diodes (QLEDs), also known as quantum dot (QD) electroluminescent devices, have gained prominence in next-generation display technologies, positioning them as potential alternatives to organic light-emitting diodes. Nonetheless, challenges persist in enhancing key device performances such as efficiency and lifetime, while those of blue QLEDs lag behind compared with green and red counterparts. In this Perspective, we discuss key factors affecting the photoluminescence characteristics of environmentally benign blue-emissive ternary ZnSeTe QDs, including composition, core/shell heterostructure, and surface ligand. Notably, we highlight the recent progress in breakthrough strategies to enhance blue QLED performance, examining the effects of the ZnSeTe QD attribute and device architecture on device performance. This Perspective offers insights into integrated aspects of QD material and device structure in overcoming challenges toward a high-performance blue ZnSeTe QLED.
