Anisotropic heterostructures of colloidal nanocrystals embed size-, shape-, and composition-
dependent electronic structure within variable three-dimensional morphology, enabling …

A synthesis and characterization of luminescent nano‐heterostructures consisting of CdSe
nanorod (NR) cores and a ZnO shell with up to three monolayers of ZnO is reported. The …

Colloidal nanorod heterostructures consisting of multiple quantum dots within a nanorod (n-
DNRs, where n is the number of quantum dots within a nanorod) are synthesized with …

Photon upconversion is a photophysical process in which two low-energy photons are
converted into one high-energy photon. Photon upconversion has broad appeal for a range …

We explore the status of state-of-the-art upconverter materials in the context of improving
solar cell performance. We focus on semiconductor upconversion nanostructures that can …

A quantum prism, a new structure, consisting of many quantum wires with a diameter that
gradually decreases from the base to the top, is the focus of our research. This distribution of …

Semiconductor nanocrystals, although well recognized for their robustness as biomarkers,
nonetheless suffer from certain limitations relating to their cyclability and intermittency. For …

As advanced materials for energy storage or conversion applications, metal sulfides with
hollow structures are as widely used as supercapacitors and sensors. The geometries and …

Different energy loss mechanisms have restricted the breakthroughs in concentrated
photovoltaic/thermal (CPVT) hybrid solar systems that use photoluminescent filters. Re …
