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 ...

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 ...
