胶质红外量子点薄膜入射角对荧光特性的影响分析

胶质红外量子点优异的光学性能使其荧光特性具有广泛的应用前景,在实际应用中通常需要封装成薄膜形态以保持稳定的荧光特性。然而,分散形式的改变可能会导致量子点荧光效率降低以及荧光角度特性变化。因此,建立了红外量子点荧光强度探测系统,对胶质红外量子点薄膜在不同角度激发光入射时产生的荧光分布情况进行研究。实验及分析结果表明,激发光与样品表面夹角大小在10°～170°之间的较大范围内入射时,在反射及透射荧光区域均可探测到荧光峰值强度70%～80%以上的荧光出射,在这一范围内的反射荧光与透射荧光强度差异和荧光强度随激发光入射角度的变化规律分别与样品中量子点的浓度以及分布形态有关。同时,随着入射激光能量的增强,样品出射荧光强度对于入射角度变化的“平坦”范围进一步扩大。

Coulomb effects in semiconductor quantum dots

This paper presents a new model for the Internet graph (AS graph) based on the concept of heuristic trade-off optimization, introduced by Fabrikant, Koutsoupias and Papadimitriou in [5] to grow a random tree with a heavily tailed degree distribution. We propose here a generalization of this approach to generate a general graph, as a candidate for modeling the Internet. We present the results of our simulations and an analysis of the standard parameters measured in our model, compared with measurements from the physical Internet graph.Received: 9 February 2004, Published online: 14 May 2004PACS: 89.75.-k Complex systems - 89.75.Hc Networks and genealogical trees - 89.75.Da Systems obeying scaling laws - 89.75.Fb Structures and organization in complex systems - 89.65.Gh Economics; econophysics, financial markets, business and managementLRI: http: //www.lri.fr/~ihameli; CNRS, LIP, ENS Lyon : http: //www.ens-lyon.fr/~nschaban     

Vector solitons in semiconductor quantum dots

A theory of an optical vector soliton of self-induced transparency in an ensemble of semiconductor quantum dots is considered. By using the perturbative reduction method, the system of the Maxwell–Liouville equations is reduced to the two-component coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations. It is shown that a distribution of transition dipole moments of the quantum dots and phase modulation changes significantly the pulse parameters. The shape of the optical two-component vector soliton with the sum and difference of the frequencies in the region of the carrier frequency is presented. The vector soliton can be reduced to the breather solution of self-induced transparency with a different profile. Explicit analytical expressions in the presence of single-excitonic and biexcitonic transitions for the optical vector soliton are obtained with realistic parameters which can be reached in current experiments.

Excitonic polarons in semiconductor quantum dots

The discretization of the electronic spectrum in semiconductor quantum dots implies a strong coupling behavior between the optical phonons and the electron-hole pairs, despite the fact that a pair is electrically neutral. The excitonic polarons strongly modify the optical spectra. In particular, the ground excitonic polaron contains one or two phonon components, which leads to the existence of phonon replicas in the luminescence. The population and coherence decay times of the optical transition associated with the ground excitonic polaron are calculated.

Assemblies of semiconductor quantum dots and light-harvesting-complex II

A novel hybrid system composed of fluorescent core/shell semiconductor quantum dots and the light harvesting complex II (LHCIIb), a membrane protein of higher plants, has been assembled. Experiments with different mutants show that hybrid formation can be mediated by a C-terminal His₆ tag attached to the protein as well as by positive charges of the first N-terminal amino acids of LHCIIb. Quenching of the quantum dot fluorescence upon binding of LHCIIb was partially attributed to energy transfer from the quantum dots to LHCIIb.
