Selective Excitation of CdSe/CdS Dot‐in‐Rod Nanocrystals and Distinct Roles of Electrons and Holes in Photophysical and Photochemical Interactions with Ambient Air
Abstract:CdSe/CdS dot‐in‐rod (DiR) nanocrystals are an advantageous heterostructured semiconductor system with a quasi‐type‐II electronic band structure, which enables a rich diversity of optical manipulation of carrier excitations and interactions. Herein, the selective excitation of respective CdSe quantum dots (QDs) and CdS nanorods of the CdSe/CdS DiR nanostructure is reported, which results in the distinct presence of different types of carriers at the nanorod surface. The presence of only electrons at the surface… Show more
