Upon shell growth, the nanocrystals exhibit dual emission. The green luminescence peak is assigned as band edge emission and the broad, lower energy red peak is due to Cu dopant. Although, the oxidation state of Cu in the nanocrystals is debated, the emission is explained as recombination of a hole related to Cu²⁺ with an electron from the conduction band. The emission changed in the presence of dodecanethiol. Generally, the band edge emi

Abstract:
Plasmonics with heavily doped semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) is an emerging field in NC science. However, impurity doping of NCs remains far from trivial and is, as yet, dominated by a low chemical control over the incorporated dopant atoms. An appealing alternative is vacancy doping, where the formation of vacancies in the structure is responsible for an increased carrier density and elegantly circumvents the issues related to impurity doping. Due to high carrier densities of around 10^21cm^(-3) localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) in the near infrared (NIR) are expected, and as suc

Abstract:
Various sizes of BaTiO3 and Cr3+-doped BaTiO3 nanocrystals were synthesized through hydrothermal and solvothermal methods. The applied solvents water, ethanol and benzyl alcohol lead to nanoparticles with average sizes of 200, 10 and 5 nm, respectively. The nanocrystals were treated with trioctylphosphine oxide to remove surface-bound dopant ions, and colloidal free-standing nanocrystals smaller than 10 nm were obtained by using oleic acid as a dispersant surfactant. The tetragonal-to-cubic phase transition at room temperature of undoped nanocrystalline BaTiO3 has been investigated by powder X

Abstract:
This thesis presents a detailed investigation into the spectroscopic properties of inorganic nanocrystals doped with trivalent rare earth ions. We focus on their upconversion luminescence, emission of radiation at higher energy than the pump wavelength, and evaluate the fundamental mechanisms of upconversion in the nanocrystal. We evaluate the spectroscopic properties of sesquioxide nanocrystals doped with trivalent erbium (M 2 O 3 :Er 3+ , where M = Y, Lu, or Sc) prepared by the propellant synthesis technique. Characteristic green, red, and near-infrared Er 3+ emission is observed following

Abstract:
博士<br>國立中央大學<br>材料科學與工程研究所<br>101<br>For development of next generation crystalline Si solar cells, one of the new concepts for heterojunction solar cells is using wide bandgap materials as emitter layers due to the higher light transmittance. Silicon nanocrystals (Si-NCs) embedded in a wide bandgap dielectric matrix, such as SiOx, SiNx, and SiCx could be used for this purpose. Moreover, for increasing the conductivity of Si-NCs, incorporating the dopants into Si-NCs has also been demonstrated. So far, the doped Si-NCs in SiOx or SiCx matrix have been used for device fabrication. However, ther

Europium-doped Ca(Ti,Zr)O3 were prepared by a sol-gel method and annealed at 800°C in O2. The structure and particle size were investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). The XRD results show that the particle size is dependent on the Ti/Zr ratio. The extended x-ray absorption fine structure results show that Zr and Ti are in similar chemical environments.

Abstract:
Mn-doped II-VI semiconductor nanocrystals exhibit bright dopant photoluminescence that has potential usefulness for light emitting devices, temperature sensing, and biological imaging. The bright luminescence comes from the 4T1→6A1 transition of the Mn2+ d electrons after the exciton-dopant energy transfer, which reroutes the exciton relaxation through trapping processes. The driving force of the energy transfer is the strong exchange coupling between the exciton and Mn2+ due to the confinement of exciton in the nanocrystal. The exciton-Mn spatial overlap affecting the exchange coupling streng
