Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Today, the fascinating story of colloidal quantum dots has no series finale yet. Instead, there continue to be advancements in our understanding of the fundamental properties of these nanocrystals, each of these advancements catalyzing a spin-off into a new journey toward potential applications. These remarkable advancements include improving the synthesis techniques, characterizing nanocrystals at the single-particle level, and tailoring their properties for specific applications. The quantum-confined colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals field has witnessed a remarkable convergence of nanoscience, materials chemistry, and spectroscopy, resulting in unprecedented control over their properties. With ongoing research efforts, the potential of semiconductor nanocrystals continues to unfold. Scientists are exploring new materials, developing scalable synthesis methods, and pushing the boundaries of their applications in fields such as quantum computing, energy storage, and biological sensing. The authors take the reader into quantum confinement and quantum dots. While the contents of this primer are rather expansive, they merely scratch the surface of the complex voyage that quantum dot sciences have undergone. The authors have identified vital terminology, valuable concepts, techniques, and applications.

Download or read book Comparison of Quantum Confinement Effects Between Quantum Wires and Dots written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dimensionality is an important factor to govern the electronic structures of semiconductor nanocrystals. The quantum confinement energies in one-dimensional quantum wires and zero-dimensional quantum dots are quite different. Using large-scale first-principles calculations, we systematically study the electronic structures of semiconductor (including group IV, III-V, and II-VI) surface-passivated quantum wires and dots. The band-gap energies of quantum wires and dots have the same scaling with diameter for a given material. The ratio of band-gap-increases between quantum wires and dots is material-dependent, and slightly deviates from 0.586 predicted by effective-mass approximation. Highly linear polarization of photoluminescence in quantum wires is found. The degree of polarization decreases with the increasing temperature and size.

Download or read book Solar Light Harvesting with Nanocrystalline Semiconductors written by Oleksandr Stroyuk and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-07 with total page 404 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the use of nanocrystalline semiconductors in the harvesting of energy from solar light. It introduces promising methodology and technology which may help to increase the efficiency of light harvesting – one of the major challenges on the way toward sustainable energy generation.The book starts with a general introduction to the photochemistry of semiconductor nanocrystals. In the introductory chapter, the author also provides a frank and critical discussion on perspectives and limitations of the photocatalytic processes for solar light conversion including a historical account on semiconductor photocatalysis. He discusses that (and also why) it is a long way from laboratory prototypes to real sustainable technologies.The following chapters outline the conversion of solar light energy in semiconductor nanophotocatalysis on the one hand, and to (electric) energy in nanocrystalline semiconductor-based solar cells on the other hand. Topics addressed include nanophotocatalytic hydrogen production, artificial photosynthesis, quantum-dot sensitized liquid-junction and bulk heterojunction solar cells. Perspectives and opportunities, but also bottlenecks and limitations are discussed and the novel systems compared with established technology, such as classical silicon solar cells. While readers in this way learn to understand the basics and get introduced to the current research in the field, the final chapter provides them with the necessary knowledge about methodology, both in synthesis and characterization of semiconductor nanophotocatalysts and semiconductor nanomaterials, including examples for the practice of photocatalytic experiments and the studies of semiconductor-based solar cells.
