This article reviews the mechanisms through which molecules adsorbed to the surfaces of
semiconductor nanocrystals, quantum dots (QDs), influence the pathways for and dynamics …

This paper describes a quantitative analysis of the chemical composition of
organic/inorganic interfaces of colloidal 3.1-nm CdSe quantum dots (QDs) synthesized with …

Lead halide perovskite nanocrystals, which offer rich photochemistry, have the potential to
capture photons over a wide range of the visible and infrared spectrum for photocatalytic …

Replacement of the native (as-synthesized) ligands of colloidal CdSe QDs with varying
concentrations of a series of para-substituted anilines (R-An), where R ranges from strongly …

This Perspective discusses recent work on mechanisms by which organic ligands affect the
electronic structure and exciton dynamics of colloidal quantum dots (QDs). Much of the work …

The photoluminescence (PL) of single emitters like semiconductor quantum dots (QDs)
shows PL intermittency, often called blinking. We explore the PL intensities of single …

Cation exchange, recently explored for synthesizing core/shell quantum dots (QDs), causes
continuous core size change during shell formation. By carefully varying parent PbS QD size …

We report on the results of a detailed quantitative experimental evaluation of exciton
relaxation pathways as well as direct measurement of singlet oxygen (1O2) generation …

Energy transfer from quantum dots (QDs) to variable-length, dye-labeled peptides is
reported. We find that existing models used to calculate the efficiency of energy transfer from …
