Temperature-dependent photoluminescence of size-tunable ZnAgInSe quaternary quantum dots

【摘要】 Colloidal ZnAgInSe(ZAISe) quantum dots(QDs) with different particle sizes were obtained by accommodating the reaction time. In the previous research, photoluminescence(PL) of ZAISe QDs only could be tuned by changing the composition. In this work the size-tunable photoluminescence was observed successfully. The red shift in the photoluminescence spectra was caused by the quantum confinement effect. The time-resolved photoluminescence indicated that the luminescence mechanisms of the ZAISe QDs were contributed by three recombination processes. Furthermore, the temperature-dependent PL spectra were investigated. We verified the regular change of temperature-dependent PL intensity, peak energy, and the emission linewidth of broadening for ZAISe QDs. According to these fitting data, the activation energy(?E) of ZAISe QDs with different nanocrystal sizes was obtained and the stability of luminescence was discussed.更多还原
