One-Dimensional Inorganic Semiconductor Nanostructures

One-dimensional (1D) inorganic semiconductor nanostructures have witnessed an explosion of interest over the last decade because of advances in their controlled synthesis and unique property and potential applications. A wide range of gases, chemicals, biomedical nanosensors, and photodetectors have been assembled using 1D inorganic semiconductor nanostructures. The high-performance characteristics of these nanosensors are particularly attributable to the inorganic semiconducting nanostructure high surface-to-volume ratio (SVR) and its rationally designed surface. In this review, we provide a brief summary of the state-of-the-art research activities in the field of 1D inorganic semiconductor nanostructure-based nanosensors. Some perspectives and the outlook for future developments in this area are presented.

AbstractA theory of plasmon-exciton coupling and its spectroscopy is developed for metal-semiconductor nanostructures. Considered as a model is a periodic superlattice with cells consisting of a quantum well and a layer of metal nanoparticles. The problem is solved self-consistently using the electrodynamic Green’s functions taking account of resonant polarization. Coulomb plasmon-exciton interaction is associated with the dipole surface plasmons of particles and their image charges due to excitonic polarization of neighboring quantum well. Optical reflection spectra are numerically investigated for superlattices with GaAs/AlGaAs quantum wells and silver nanoparticles. Superradiant regime caused by one-dimensional Bragg diffraction is studied for plasmonic, excitonic and plasmon-excitonic polaritons depending on the number of supercells. The plasmon-excitonic Rabi splitting is shown to occur in reflectivity spectra of resonant Bragg structures.
