High-Throughput Characterization of Single-Quantum-Dot Emission Spectra and Spectral Diffusion by Multiparticle Spectroscopy

In recent years, quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as bright, color-tunable light sources for various applications such as light-emitting devices, lasing, and bioimaging. One important next step to advance their applicability is to reduce particle-to-particle variations of the emission properties as well as fluctuations of a single QD’s...

Biexciton Binding Energy and Line width of Single Quantum Dots at Room Temperature

Broadening of multiexciton emission from colloidal quantum dots (QDs) at room temperature is important for their use in high-power applications, but an in-depth characterization has not been possible until now. We present and apply a novel spectroscopic method to quantify the biexciton line width and biexciton binding energy of single CdSe...
