室温下表面极化效应对量子点带隙和吸收峰波长的影响

对于离散在本底介质中的纳米晶体量子点,考虑表面极化效应,通过像电荷法建立极化势能项,应用微扰法求解激子的薛定谔方程,得到了与本底介电系数直接相关的量子点带隙解析表达式.对不同本底中尺寸依赖的量子点带隙、第一吸收峰波长、第一吸收峰波长移动进行的计算表明,表面极化效应对量子点的带隙和第一吸收峰波长有明显的影响.随着本底介电系数的增大,量子点的带隙减小,第一吸收峰波长红移.量子点在不同本底中的第一吸收峰波长移动会在某个固定粒径达到最大值,最大值对应的粒径取决于量子点种类.

热处理温度对量子点粒度分布的影响

为了明确热处理温度对熔融法制备PbSe量子点玻璃材料的影响, 实验对比了核化时间、晶化温度、晶化时间对晶体大小、粒度分布和吸收光谱特性的影响. 在相同核化温度、不同晶化温度条件下, 各样品的透射电子显微镜图显示都有一定量的晶体形成, 但其晶化程度、尺寸大小及分布有明显不同. 通过计算晶体粒度分布定量地揭示出, 随着晶化温度的提高, 量子点晶体尺寸逐渐增大, 从而提高了晶体颗粒的浓度. 吸收光谱的测量也表明, 随着晶化温度的升高, 吸收峰从无到有不断增强且出现红移现象. 而当晶化温度较低时, 虽有晶体形成, 但无明显吸收峰, 主要是由于晶体尺寸较小, 浓度较低, 晶体颗粒的吸收峰被背景材料所掩盖. 研究结果可为制备具有一定浓度的不同尺寸的量子点晶体, 进而获得多个波段下较强的吸收和辐射的量子点玻璃提供一定的参考.

Luminescent CdSe and CdSe/CdS core-shell nanocrystals synthesized via a combination of solvothermal and two-phase thermal routes

A new solvothermal route has been developed for synthesizing the size-controlled CdSe nanocrystals with relatively narrow size distribution, and the photoluminescence (PL) quantum yields (QYs) of the nanocrystals can reach 5-10%. Then the obtained CdSe nanocrystals served as cores to prepare the core/shell CdSe/CdS nanocrystals via a two-phase thermal approach, which exhibited much higher PL QYs (up to 18-40%) than the CdSe core nanocrystals. The nanocrystal samples were characterized by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption spectra, PL spectra, wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM).

A detailed study of physical properties of ZnS quantum dots synthesized by reverse micelle method

In this article, zinc sulfide nanocrystal quantum dots were synthesized by reverse micelle method using polyvinyl pyrrolidone as surfactant. The various crystallite properties of these nanocrystals such as, size, d-spacing, lattice parameter, microstrain, intrinsic stress, X-ray density, specific surface area, dislocation density, porosity, and agglomeration number have been analyzed using X-ray diffraction spectrum. The transmission electron microscopy was used to calculate the size and monitoring morphology of the nanocrystals, while the scanning electron microscopy was utilized to investigate the surface morphology of nanoclusters. The various optical properties of zinc sulfide quantum dots such as absorption coefficient, extinction coefficient, optical band gap energy, Urbach energy, and threshold wavelength have been analyzed using UV-visible data. The photoluminescence was used to study the emission spectra of produced ZnS quantum dots. Moreover, Furrier Transform-Infrared studies revealed that ZnS quantum dots are pure.     

Spectral diffusion of quasi localized excitons in single silicon nanocrystals

Evolution in time of photoluminescence spectra of SiO_x capped single silicon nanocrystals has been investigated by means of confocal optical spectroscopy at room temperature. Large spectral jumps between subsequent spectra of up to 40 meV have been detected leading to noticeable line broadening and variation in the electron–phonon coupling. Further, a correlation between emission energy and emission intensity has been found and discussed in terms of an intrinsic Stark effect. Anti-correlated variations of the electron–phonon coupling to Si and SiO₂ phonons as a function of photoluminescence energy indicate that the nearly localized excition is to some extent coupled to phonons in the shell covering the silicon nanocrystal. However, coupling is reduced upon increasing Stark effect, while at the same time coupling to phonons of the Si core increases.     

Size-dependent photo-induced shift of the first exciton band in CdTe quantum dots in glass prepared by a two-stage heat-treatment process

CdTe nanocrystals were grown from commercially available RG850 Schott filter glass by two-step heat-treatment process which almost doubles the particle to matrix volume fraction. A calculation shows that a quantized-state effective mass model in the strong confinement regime might be used to deduce the average radius for the nanocrystals larger than 2 nm in radius from the energetic position of the first exciton peak in optical absorption spectrum. Size-induced shift of ∼360 meV in the first exciton peak position was observed. The steady state photoluminescence spectra exhibit a broad band red shifted relative to the first exciton band, which indicates the existence of shallow trap states. The non-linear optical properties of CdTe nanocrystals were studied by room temperature resonant photoabsorption spectroscopy. The differential absorption spectra had three-lobed structure whose size-dependent evolution was explained by bleaching of the absorption, red shift and broadening in the Gaussian absorption band used to fit the first exciton peak. A maximum red shift of 2.32 meV for the average nanocrystal radius of 4.65 nm was estimated by fitting the photomodulation spectra with a combination of first and second derivative Gaussian absorption bands. We presume that the red shift is induced by the electric field of trapped charges in surface states. Internal electric field strengths of 23 and 65 kV/cm were predicted for the average nanocrystal radii of 3.95 and 4.65 nm, respectively, with the help of second-order perturbation theory in the strong confinement limit.     

The temporal evolution of the structure and luminescence properties of CdSe semiconductor quantum dots grown at low temperatures

Mono-dispersed CdSe quantum dots have been prepared by water based route using 2-mercaptoethanol at low temperatures. The structures of the CdSe nanocrystals were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM). The XRD pattern showed that the prepared CdSe has a cubic phase with zinc blende structure. The temporal evolution of the absorption and photoluminescence spectra was used to follow the reaction process and to characterize the optical properties of the prepared CdSe quantum dots. The results exhibited clear exciton peaks in the absorption spectra. The influence of the temperature and/or time of reaction on the properties of the CdSe nanocrystals were investigated. It is found that the size of CdSe nanoparticles increases, as the reaction temperature and/or time are increased. The results showed that the Stokes shift between photoluminescence emission peak and absorption peaks is increased with the increase of the reaction temperature.     

用巯基乙酸作稳定剂制备CdSe纳米晶的光学性质

Effect of nonuniform permittivity of a solid-state matrix on the spectral width of erbium ion luminescence

The Stark splitting of the energy levels of Er³⁺ ions implanted in a structure made up of alternating layers of silicon dioxide and quasi-ordered silicon nanocrystals is calculated. The level splitting is caused by the electric field of the image charges induced at the interfaces between layers with different permittivities. The splitting was established to increase as the contrast in permittivity between the silicon dioxide and silicon nanocrystal layers increases, as well as when the erbium ions approach the layer interface. The results obtained offer an adequate explanation of the experimentally observed additional broadening of the erbium photoluminescence band (0.8 eV) with increasing characteristic size of the silicon nanocrystals.
