Surface effects on the ultrafast electronic relaxation of some semiconductor and metallic nanoparticles

The research presented has been focused on understanding the surface effects on the optical and electronic properties of some metallic and semiconductor nanomaterials. When the particle sizes are on the nanometer length scale, a large fraction of atoms in the particles are on the surface. The bondin...
