Energy relaxation in CdSe nanocrystals: the effects of morphology and film preparation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ultrafast time-resolved absorption spectroscopy is used to investigate exciton dynamics in CdSe nanocrystal films. The effects of morphology, quantum-dot versus quantum-rod, and preparation of nanocrystals in a thin film form are investigated. The measurements revealed longer intraband exciton relaxation in quantum-rods than in quantum-dots. The slowed relaxation in quantum-rods is due to mitigation of the Auger-relaxation mechanism from elongating the nanocrystal. In addition, the nanocrystal thin film showed long-lived confined acoustic phonons corresponding to the ellipsoidal breathing mode, contrary to others work on colloidal systems of CdSe nanocrystals.

We demonstrate efficient excitonic sensitization of crystalline Si nanomembranes via combined effects of radiative (RET) and nonradiative (NRET) energy transfer from a proximal monolayer of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals. Ultrathin, 25-300 nm Si films are prepared on top of insulating SiO(2) substrates and grafted with a monolayer of CdSe/ZnS nanocrystals via carboxy-alkyl chain linkers. ...

We synthesize colloidal CdSe@CdS octapod nanocrystals decorated with Pt domains, resulting in a metal-semiconductor heterostructure. We devise a protocol to control the growth of Pt on the CdS surface, realizing both a selective tipping and a non-selective coverage. Ultrafast optical spectroscopy, particularly femtosecond transient absorption, is employed to correlate the dynamics of optical ex...
