Optical phonon-assisted emission of dark excitons controls the intensity and maximum position of σ− and σ+ polarized photoluminescence of CdSe nanocrystals.
Passive mode locking of a continuous wave diodepumped Tm:KYW laser at 1.94 μm was demonstrated by using glass doped with PbS quantum dots as a saturable absorber. The laser operated in Q-switched mode-locking regime. Conversion efficiency of free-running output power to output power of pulsed operation was estimated at 30%.Intensity, a.u.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
