Abstract:
A key factor in the success of using laser scanning confocal microscopy to image molecular systems such as fluorescent microspheres, is the requirement for the microspheres to have a high intensity of florescence whilst having a high photobleaching resistance. In this work, a number of straightforward and reliable synthetic procedures to prepare silica and PMMA microspheres using quantum dots as the fluorescent material are described. Experimental data reveals that quantum dots perform as an excellent fluorophore, showing significantly greater photobleaching resistance as compared to organic d

Reversible circuits are similar to conventional logic circuits except that they are built from reversible gates. In reversible gates, there is a unique, one-to-one mapping between the inputs and outputs, not the case with conventional logic. Also, reversible gates require constant ancilla inputs for reconfiguration of gate functions and garbage outputs that help in keeping reversibility. Reversible circuits hold promise in futuristic computing technologies like quantum computing, quantum dot cellular automata, DNA computing, optical computing, etc. Thus, it is important to minimize parameters

Chloroquine (CQ) is a well-known antimalarial drug acting through the inhibition of the formation of haemozoin crystals in the Plasmodium parasite’s digestive vacuole within human infected red blood cells.

Chloroquine is supposed to be adsorbed onto the fastest growing face of the crystal, inhibiting the growth and increasing the amount of toxic Fe(III)PPIX; however, the mechanism of this interaction is still largely unproven.

Abstract:
My Ph.D. thesis is presented in two parts. In the first part, I describe the preparation of organic-inorganic hybrid micelles formed from poly(styrene-b-4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) block copolymers and CdSe quantum dots (QDs). Several distinct morphologies were observed including, spheres, finite-sized wormlike networks and clusters of hollow vesicles. A series of experiments were carried out to explore whether these hybrid colloids were thermodynamically stable or formed under kinetic control. Upon addition of 2-propanol (2-PrOH) to a chloroform solution containing a mixture of PS404-b-P4VP7

Abstract:
Colloidal nanocrystals with optical properties in the near-infrared (NIR) are of interest for many applications such as photovoltaic (PV) energy conversion, bioimaging, and therapeutics. For PVs and other electronic devices, challenges in using colloidal nanomaterials often deal with the surfaces. Because of the high surface-to-volume ratio of small nanocrystals, surfaces and interfaces play an enhanced role in the properties of nanocrystal films and devices. Organic ligand-capped CuInSe2 (CIS) and Cu(InXGa1-X)Se2 (CIGS) nanocrystals were synthesized and used as the absorber layer in proto

Then carbon dioxide reduction is performed by using light to excite semiconductor photocatalyst to generate electron-hole pair.

Abstract:
The commercially available solar cells suffer from low conversion efficiency due to the thermalization and transmission losses arising from the mismatch between the band gap of the semiconductor materials and the solar spectrum. Advanced device architectures based on nanomaterial have been proposed and being successfully used to enhance the efficiency of the solar cells. Quantum dots (QDs) and nanowires (NWs) are the nanosclae structures that have been exploited for the development of the third generation solar cell devices and nanowire based solar cells, respectively.

Abstract:
The synthesis of nanocrystals is unique compared to the formation of larger micron-sizesspecies as the final crystal sizes are not much larger than the primary nuclei. As a consequencethe final outcome of a nanocrystal synthesis i.e mean crystal size, concentrationand standard deviation is almost solely determined by the end of the nucleation phase. Directingthe growth of crystals beginning from aggregates of only tens of atoms into maturemonodisperse nanocrystals requires that the governing kinetics are strictly controlled at everymoment of the reaction.

However, CsPbX3 QDs synthesized by the existing methods are suffering from surface defects due to weak binding of ligands and surfaces. In order to resolve this problem, we used Octylphosphonic acid (OPA) as a new ligand with ligand exchange method to improve the quantum efficiency and environmental stability of the CsPbX3 QDs, then analyzed thier cr
