The Double Quantum Dot Feline Cousin of Schrödinger’s Cat: An Experimental Testbed for a Discourse on Quantum Measurement Dichotomies

نویسنده

  • S. Bandyopadhyay
چکیده

Quantum measurement theory is a perplexing discipline fraught with paradoxes and dichotomies. Here we discuss a gedanken experiment that uses a popular testbed namely, a coupled double quantum dot system to revisit intriguing questions about the collapse of wavefunctions, irreversibility, objective reality and the actualization of a measurement outcome.

SILAR Sensitization as an Effective Method for Making Efficient Quantum Dot Sensitized Solar Cells

CdSe quantum dots were in situ deposited on various structures of TiO2 photoanode by successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR). Various sensitized TiO2 structures were integrated as a photoanode in order to make quantum dot sensitized solar cells. High power conversion efficiency was obtained; 2.89 % (Voc=524 mV, Jsc=9.78 mA/cm2, FF=0.56) for the cells that sensitized by SILAR meth...

Quantum current modeling in nano-transistors with a quantum dot

Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) serve as a new class of ‘zero dimensional’ nanomaterial’s in thecarbon class with sizes below 10 nm. As light emitting nanocrystals, QDs are assembled from semiconductormaterials, from the elements in the periodic groups of II-VI, III-V or IV-VI, mainly thanks to impacts of quantum confinement QDs have unique optical properties such as brighter, highly pho...
