Abstract

Ultrafast transient absorption (TA) spectroscopy has been carried out to study the charge carrier dynamics of CdSe core and CdSe/V2O5 core/shell quantum dots (QDs). A significant redshift accompanied by broadening in the first excitonic peak was observed in the UV-Vis absorption spectra of the core/shell QDs as the shell thickness increases. This interesting observation is related to a quasi-type-II alignment characterized by the spatial separation of an electron into the core/shell and a hole into the core. The observed optical excitonic spectra have further been used to study the energetics of CdSe and charge separated states with the concept of Marcus theory and confirmed that electron transfer takes place in the Marcus inverted region (). Moreover, the growth kinetics of the CdSe core and CdSe/V2O5 core/shell QDs, studied with TA spectroscopy, exhibits slow electron cooling in core/shell QDs because of the de-coupling of the electronic wave functions with their hole counterpart. These exciting properties reveal a new paradigm shift from CdSe QDs to CdSe/V2O5 core/shell QDs for highly suitable applications in photovoltaics (PV) and optoelectronic devices.

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.
