AbstractThree models of single colloidal quantum dot emission fluctuations (blinking) based on spectral diffusion were considered analytically and numerically. It was shown that the only one of them, namely the Frantsuzov and Marcus model reproduces the key properties of the phenomenon. The other two models, the Diffusion-Controlled Electron Transfer (DCET) model and the Extended DCET model predict that after an initial blinking period, most of the QDs should become permanently bright or permanently dark which is significantly different from the experimentally observed behavior.

We present a general theoretical description of the extrinsic dephasing mechanism of spectral diffusion that dominates the decoherence dynamics in semiconductor quantum dots at low temperature. We discuss the limits of random telegraph and Gaussian stochastic noises and show that the combination of both approaches in the framework of the pre-Gaussian noise theory allows a quantitative interpretation of high-resolution experiments in single semiconductor quantum dots. We emphasize the generality and the versatility of our model where the inclusion of asymmetric jump processes appears as an essential extension for the understanding of semiconductor quantum dot physics.

ABSTRACTThe motivation and distinct approach for this work is the use of intraband transitions within colloidal quantum dots for the detection of mid- (3-5 μm) and/or long-wave (8-14 μm) infrared light. The CdSe colloidal quantum dot/MEH-PPV conducting polymer nanocomposite material is well-suited for this application due to the ∼1.5 eV difference between the corresponding electron affinities. Therefore, CdSe colloidal quantum dots embedded in MEH-PPV should provide electron quantum confinement such that intraband transitions can occur in the conduction band. Further, it is desirable to deposit these nanocomposites on semiconductor substrates to enable charge transfer of photogenerated electron-hole pairs from the substrate to the nanocomposite. In this way, optoelectronic devices analogous to those achieved using Stranski-Krastanow quantum dots grown by epitaxy can be realized. To date, there have been relatively few investigations of colloidal quantum dot nanocomposites deposited on GaAs substrates. However, it is crucial to develop a better understanding of the optical properties of these hybrid material systems if such heterostructures are to be used for optoelectronic devices, such as infrared photodetectors. By depositing the nanocomposites on GaAs substrates featuring different doping characteristics and measuring the corresponding Fourier transform infrared absorbance, the feasibility of these intraband transitions is demonstrated at room temperature.

The broad absorption of light in the UV-Vis-NIR region and the size-based tunable photoluminescence color of semiconductor quantum dots make these tiny crystals one of the most attractive antennae in solar cells and phosphors in electrooptical devices.
