5.381 Quantum Dots
(
); partial term
Prereq: 5.353 and 5.61
Units: 1-2-1
In person required. 1st lec mandatory. Safety lecture mandatory. 2/16 or 2/17 at 1 pm virtual. Lecture: TR11 (VIRTUAL) Lab: MW1-5 (12-5170B) or TR1-5 (12-5170B)
Covers synthesis of a discrete size series of quantum dots, followed by synthesis of a single size of core/shell quantum dots utilizing air-free Schlenk manipulation of precursors. Uses characterization by absorption and fluorescence spectroscopies to rationalize the compositional/size dependence of the shell on the electronic structure of the quantum dots. Students acquire time traces of the fluorescence of single core and core/shell quantum dots using single molecule spectroscopic tools. The fluorescence on/off blinking distribution observed will be fit to a standard model. Students use Matlab for computational modeling of the electron and hole wavefunction in core and core/shell quantum dots. Analyzes several commercial applications of quantum dot technologies.
