- Electron Stability and Negative-Tetron Luminescence in Free-Standing Colloidal n-Type CdSe/CdS Quantum Dots.
Electron Stability and Negative-Tetron Luminescence in Free-Standing Colloidal n-Type CdSe/CdS Quantum Dots.
We examine the effects of CdS shell growth on photochemical reduction of colloidal CdSe quantum dots (QDs) and describe the spectroscopic properties of the resulting n-type CdSe/CdS QDs. CdS shell growth greatly slows electron trapping. Because of this improvement, complete two-electron occupancy of the 1S
