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...

static properties, relatively intensity noise and intensity modulation response in quantum cascade lasers (qcls) studied theoretically in this paper. the present rate equations model consists of three equations for the electrons density in the conduction band and one equation for photons density in cavity length. two equations were derived to calculate the noise and modulation response. calcula...

The use of quantum dots (QDots) as bright and photostable probes for long-term fluorescence imaging is gaining more interest. Thus far, (pre)clinical use of QDots remains limited, which is primarily caused by the potential toxicity of QDots. Most QDots consist of Cd2+ ions, which are known to cause high levels of toxicity. Therefore, the cytotoxic effects of CdSe quantum dots on embryonic devel...

The frequency behavior of the tunnel injection quantum dot vertical cavitysurface emitting laser (TIQD-VCSEL) is investigated by using an analyticalnumericalmethod on the modulation transfer function. The function is based on therate equations and is decomposed into components related to different energy levelsinside the quantum dot and injection well. In this way, the effect of the tunnelingpr...
