Controlled modification of single colloidal CdSe/ZnS nanocrystal fluorescence through interactions with a gold surface.
Single colloidal CdSe/ZnS nanocrystals are deposited at various distances from a gold film in order to improve their performance as single photon sources. Photon antibunching is demonstrated and the experimental curves are accurately fitted by theoretical equations. Emission lifetime and intensity are measured and found in excellent agreement with theoretical values. The various effects of a ne...
متن کاملModifying Thermal Transport in Colloidal Nanocrystal Solids with Surface Chemistry.
We present a systematic study on the effect of surface chemistry on thermal transport in colloidal nanocrystal (NC) solids. Using PbS NCs as a model system, we vary ligand binding group (thiol, amine, and atomic halides), ligand length (ethanedithiol, butanedithiol, hexanedithiol, and octanedithiol), and NC diameter (3.3-8.2 nm). Our experiments reveal several findings: (i) The ligand choice ca...
متن کاملLigand-Induced Gold Nanocrystal Superlattice Formation in Colloidal Solution
Introduction. During the past decade, nanocrystal research has been focused on two major properties of finite size materials, namely, quantum size effects and surface/interface effects.1 A new trend, however, has emerged in the past few years to arrange the nanocrystals into two or three-dimensional superlattices.2 The ability to synthesize nanocrystal superlattice (NCS) structures will provide...
متن کاملAtomically precise gold nanocrystal molecules with surface plasmon resonance.
Since Faraday's pioneering work on gold colloids, tremendous scientific research on plasmonic gold nanoparticles has been carried out, but no atomically precise Au nanocrystals have been achieved. This work reports the first example of gold nanocrystal molecules. Mass spectrometry analysis has determined its formula to be Au(333)(SR)(79) (R = CH(2)CH(2)Ph). This magic sized nanocrystal molecule...
متن کاملObservation of single colloidal platinum nanocrystal growth trajectories.
Understanding of colloidal nanocrystal growth mechanisms is essential for the syntheses of nanocrystals with desired physical properties. The classical model for the growth of monodisperse nanocrystals assumes a discrete nucleation stage followed by growth via monomer attachment, but has overlooked particle-particle interactions. Recent studies have suggested that interactions between particles...
