Quantum confinement is a phenomenon that occurs when the dimensions of a material are reduced to the nanoscale, typically in the range of 1-100 nanometers. At this scale, the electronic and optical ...
The confinement of charge carriers in quantum wells leads to unique electronic and optical properties, making them essential components in various optoelectronic devices. This illustration represents ...
Their size-dependent colors are essentially a naked-eye, ambient-condition visualization of the quantum confinement effect. In recent years, more exotic quantum effects have been observed using ...
