Nanocrystal (NC)-sensitized triplet-fusion upconversion is a rising strategy to convert long-wavelength, incoherent light into higher-energy output photons. Here, we chart the photophysics of tailor-functionalized CdSe NCs to understand energy transfer to ...
The integration of transition-metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with non-planar substrates such as nanopillars provides a way to spatially modify the optical properties mainly through the localized strain. Similar studies to date have utilized insulating SiO2 n ...
With growing concerns on future energy supplies, solar energy appears as an energy source whose potential remains to be tapped at a large scale. In the last two decades, dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs) have been considered as a competitive means to conve ...
(S) TEM tomography is used as a complementary tool to characterize AlAs-GaAs coaxial nanowires. These nanostructures have been grown on two different GaAs substrate orientations using molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). The results show that quantum wells synthe ...
