Quantum Dot Intermediate Band Solar Cells (QD-IBSCs) represent an innovative approach in solar energy technology, aiming to enhance the efficiency of solar cells beyond traditional limits.

These quantum dots possess a high absorption coefficient and a suitable band gap. Additionally, the inherent toxicity of InP quantum dots is less compared to lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd), which ...

Colloidal quantum dots are solution-based nanocrystals prized for their unique light-harvesting abilities. They can illuminate, create color, harness solar energy and function as semiconductors. These ...

Quantum dots are crystals of a fluorescent semiconductor material with a diameter of as few as 10 to 100 atoms (2-10 nm). They are used as labels for imaging molecules because of their very narrow ...

As the size of the material decreases, the band gap increases, leading to a blue shift in the absorption and emission spectra. This effect is particularly pronounced in quantum dots, which display ...

This increase in band gap leads to a blue shift in the absorption and emission ... enabling the development of highly selective and sensitive devices. Quantum dots and quantum wells are widely used in ...
