Carrier relaxation dynamics in type-II ZnO/CdSe quantum dot heterostructures
Literature Information
Sandeep Verma
Semiconductor heterostructures with type-II band alignment are well known for their engineering property of efficient charge separation in photogenerated carriers. Herein, type-II CdSe/ZnO core/shell quantum dot heterostructures with CdSe shells of different thicknesses have been synthesized and a study of carrier dynamics is carried out using femtosecond transient absorption and picosecond emission spectroscopy. Carrier lifetime measurements by transient emission spectroscopy have revealed reduced electron–hole overlap in the type-II localization regime of ZnO/CdSe heterostructures. Femtosecond transient absorption studies have revealed hot electron transfer from CdSe shell to ZnO core prior to electron cooling in the CdSe shell. In addition, a surface channel for the hole cooling process has been identified in the transient absorption measurements. Effects of carrier trapping at interfacial defect states and type-II localization on carrier recombination have been recognized in our transient absorption and emission studies of ZnO/CdSe QDs heterostructure.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
