Effect of charging on CdSe/CdS dot-in-rods single-photon emission

Occurrence control of charged exciton for a single CdSe quantum dot at cryogenic temperatures on an optical nanofiber

We discuss photo-luminescence characteristics of CdSe core/shell quantum dots at cryogenic temperatures using a hybrid system of a single quantum dot and an optical nanofiber. The key point is to control the emission species of quantum dot to charged excitons, known as trions, which have superior characteristics to neutral excitons. We investigate the photocharging behavior for the quantum dots by varying the wavelength and intensity of irradiating laser light, and establish a method to create a permanently charged situation which lasts as long as the cryogenic temperature is maintained. The p…

Energy effective mass dependence of electron tunneling through CdS/CdSe, AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs and AlSb/InAs Multiple Quantum Barriers

Tunneling of electrons through the barriers in heterostructures devices is investigated by using the unified Transfer Matrix Method. The effect of barrier width on electron transmission coefficients has also been examined for different pairs of semiconductor devices of significant research interest in current years. Such Pairs involve AlxGa1-xAs/GaAs, AlSb/InAs, and CdS/CdSe quantum barriers with varying dimensions reduced from 20 nm to 5nm to observe how tunneling properties are affected by scaling. The effective electron masses in the well and barrier regions typically vary with constituent …

Femtosecond Transfer and Manipulation of Persistent Hot-Trion Coherence in a Single CdSe/ZnSe Quantum Dot

Ultrafast transmission changes around the fundamental trion resonance are studied after exciting a p-shell exciton in a negatively charged II-VI quantum dot. The biexcitonic induced absorption reveals quantum beats between hot trion states at 133 GHz. While interband dephasing is dominated by relaxation of the P-shell hole within 390 fs, trionic coherence remains stored in the spin system for 85 ps due to Pauli blocking of the triplet electron. The complex spectro-temporal evolution of transmission is explained analytically by solving the Maxwell-Liouville equations. Pump and probe polarizatio…

Optoelectronics of Inverted Type-I CdS/CdSe Core/Crown Quantum Ring

Inverted type-I heterostructure core/crown quantum rings (QRs) are quantum-efficient luminophores, whose spectral characteristics are highly tunable. Here, we study the optoelectronic properties of type-I core/crown CdS/CdSe QRs in the zincblende phase - over contrasting lateral size and crown width. For this we inspect their strain profiles, transition energies, transition matrix elements, spatial charge densities, electronic bandstructure, band-mixing probabilities, optical gain spectra, maximum optical gains and differential optical gains. Our framework uses an effective-mass envelope funct…

Optical and electronic properties of colloidal CdSe Quantum Rings

Luminescent colloidal CdSe nanorings are a new type of semiconductor structure that have attracted interest due to the potential for unique physics arising from their non-trivial toroidal shape. However, the exciton properties and dynamics of these materials with complex topology are not yet well understood. Here, we use a combination of femtosecond vibrational spectroscopy, temperature-resolved photoluminescence (PL), and single particle measurements to study these materials. We find that on transformation of CdSe nanoplatelets to nanorings, by perforating the center of platelets, the emissio…
