Quantum dots are nanoscale semiconductor crystals that exhibit quantum confinement effects. Due to their small size, quantum dots have discrete energy levels, resulting in size-dependent optical and ...

This effect arises due to the confinement of electrons and holes within the nanomaterial, leading to changes in the energy levels and band structure. The Quantum Size Effect arises due to the ...

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 ...

The diameter of a QD is in the same order as its exciton Bohr radius, which spatially confines the exciton and leads to the quantum confinement effect. This effect quantizes the energy levels of ...

A technical paper titled “Enhanced thermoelectric performance via quantum confinement in a metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor for thermal management” was published by researchers at ...

In a new Nature Communications study, scientists have demonstrated the quantum version of the strong Mpemba effect (sME) in a ...

In a major stride forward for nanoscience, researchers have uncovered a groundbreaking phenomenon -- electron confinement-induced plasmonic breakdown in metals.This study opens new avenues for underst ...

Scientists from China have developed high-performance colloidal quantum-dot (CQD)  surface-emitting laser array based on ...
