“…In quasi-type II systems, the electron in the conduction band would undergo delocalization into the CdS shell before recombining, depending on the energy offset between the core and shell. Indeed, the photoinduced electron transfer is more efficient in HNSs with enhanced electron delocalization capabilities due to the reduced electron–hole wave function overlap. , Some preliminary experiments conducted in this direction are provided below. The possibility of electron transfer is investigated by performing quenching experiments using an electron donor, decyl viologen (DV 2+ ).…”
