  2. 1. ZnO Quantum Dots : Size Dependent Optical, Vibrational and Photoelectrochemical Properties

    Author : Jesper Jacobsson; Tomas Edvinsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; ZnO; nanoparticels; quantum dots; Chemistry with specialization in Inorganic Chemistry; Kemi med inriktning mot oorganisk kemi;

    Abstract : This thesis is devoted to quantum dots of ZnO in the size regime 2.5-10 nm.The focus is directed towards their size dependent properties with specialemphasis on the optical, vibrational and photocatalytic properties. The particleswere synthesized by hydrolysis in alkaline zinc acetate solution. READ MORE

  5. 3. Nanomechanics – Quantum Size Effects, Contacts, and Triboelectricity

    Author : Martin Olsen; Jonas Örtegren; Håkan Olin; Per Gradin; Peter Glans; Rusen Yang; Mittuniversitetet; []
    Keywords : triboelectricity; adatom; ion; charge; mound; quantum size effect; triboelctric nanogenerator; TENG; wind driven; contact; nanomechanics; fri electron model; nanowire cantilever;

    Abstract : Nanomechanics is different from the mechanics that we experience in everyday life. At the nano-scale, typically defined as 1 to 100 nanometers, some phenomena are of crucial importance, while the same phenomena can be completely neglected on a larger scale. READ MORE

  6. 4. Luminescent Silicon Nanocrystals: From Single Quantum Dot to Light-harvesting Devices

    Author : Jingjian Zhou; Ilya Sychugov; Jan Linnros; Peter Schall; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; silicon quantum dots; photoluminescence; quantum yield; internal quantum efficiency; luminescent solar concentrator; Optics and Photonics; Optik och fotonik;

    Abstract :       Silicon (Si) serves as the basic material of the system-on-a-chip industry and photovoltaic panels nowadays. This is mostly thanks to its high abundance in the earth’s crust, thereby low cost, virtually non-toxicity, and superior stability. READ MORE

  7. 5. Green Chemical Synthesis of II-VI Semiconductor Quantum Dots

    Author : Robina Shahid; Mamoun Muhammed; Gunnar Westin; KTH; []
    Keywords : Semiconductor; Quantum Dots; Microwave; Ionic Liquids; Green Chemical Syntheis; Quantum Confinement; Optical Properties;

    Abstract : Nanotechnology is the science and technology of manipulating materials at atomic and molecular scale with properties different from bulk. Semiconductor QDs are important class of nanomaterials with unique physical and chemical properties owing to the quantum confinement effect. READ MORE
