Ultrafast measurements explain quantum dot voltage drop

Ultrafast measurements explain quantum dot voltage drop Los Alamos NM (SPX) Mar 23, 2017 - Solar cells and photodetectors could soon be made from new types of materials based on semiconductor quantum dots, thanks to new insights based on ultrafast measurements capturing real-time photoconversion processes. "Our latest ultrafast electro-optical spectroscopy studies provide unprecedented insights into the photophysics of quantum dots," said lead researcher Victor Klimov, a physici ... more
