CHARACTERIZATION OF THE SIZE-QUANTIZED ELECTRONIC AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF CdSe NANOCRYSTALS FOR APPLICATIONS IN PHOTOCATALYSIS, SOLAR CELLS AND DIFFRACTION GRATINGS
This dissertation presents novel applications of ligand-capped II-VI semiconductor nanocrystals (i.e. CdSe and CdTe).Hybrid polymer-nanocrystal thin films were prepared using a bottom-up electrochemical crosslinking method, where thiophene-functionalized CdSe NCs were wired to electron-rich 3,4-diox...
