First Principle Study on Interfacial Energetic Alignment and Charge Transfer in Quantum Dots Functionalized via Metal-Organic Dye

Quantum dots (QDs) are promising materials for applications in solar energy conversion because of tunable band gap, multi-exciton generation, photon-upconversion, etc. One of the main challenges of increasing solar energy conversion is to extend the lifetime of photoexcited charge-carriers in conduc...
