Optical Spectroscopy and New Materials: Key Scientific Issues in Quantum Dot Spectroscopy

Abstract

Abstract: This perspective focuses on the development and key scientific issues of colloidal quantum dot spectroscopy. Quantum dots are potential optical and optoelectronic materials. Spectroscopy is not only a necessary means to understand properties of quantum dots, but also directly determines the development of the field. The example of colloidal quantum dots tells us that physical chemistry, especially spectroscopy, can play a key role in the development of new materials.

Key words: optical spectroscopy, quantum dots, single molecule and ensemble, time-resolved spectroscopy, low-temperature spectroscopy, intrinsic properties, interactions
