Energy Relaxation and Hot-electron Lifetimes in Single Nanocrystals

Understanding changes in materials properties as a function of size is crucial for both fundamental science development and technological applications. Size restriction results in quantum confinement effects that modify both energy level structures and electron dynamics of solid materials. This st...
