Conduction Band Fine Structure in Colloidal HgTe Quantum Dots

Hudson, Margaret H.; Chen, Menglu; Kamysbayev, Vladislav; Janke, Eric M.; Lan, Xinzheng; Allan, Guy; Delerue, Christophe; Lee, Byeongdu; Guyot-Sionnest, Philippe; Talapin, Dmitri V.

HgTe colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are of interest because quantum confinement of semimetallic bulk HgTe allows one to synthetically control the bandgap throughout the infrared. Here, we synthesize highly monodisperse HgTe QDs and tune their doping both chemically and electrochemically. The monodispersity of the QDs was evaluated using small-angle X-ray…

Quantitative Analysis of Semiconductor Nanocrystal Ensemble Optical Extinction

Staller, Corey M.; Agrawal, Ankit; Gibbs, Stephen L.; Cabezas, Camila A. Saez; Johns, Robert W.; Milliron, Delia J.

The optical extinction coefficients of localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) in doped semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) have intensities determined by the free charge carrier concentration and the mechanisms for damping the oscillation of those free carriers. We investigate the dependence of the extinction coefficient of tin-doped indium oxide (ITO) NCs on…

Aqueous Polysulfide–Air Battery with a Mediator-Ion Solid Electrolyte and a Copper Sulfide Catalyst for Polysulfide Redox

Gross, Martha M.; Manthiram, Arumugam

Aqueous sodium polysulfide–air batteries are a promising system for enabling low-cost, high energy density, environmentally benign batteries for grid-scale deployment. However, the sluggish redox kinetics of aqueous polysulfide requires the use of a catalyst. Cobalt sulfide is a traditional catalyst with good activity and stability, but it uses expensive and…

The preparation of materials with aligned porosity in the nanometer range is of technological importance for a wide range of applications in molecular filtration, biomaterials and catalysis. Herein we present the advantages offered by cryo – lyophilisation technique as a smart and green non-standard concept to produce dense regular polyhedral…

Investigating Particle Size Effects in Catalysis by Applying a Size-Controlled and Surfactant-Free Synthesis of Colloidal Nanoparticles in Alkaline Ethylene Glycol: Case Study of the Oxygen Reduction Reaction on Pt

Quinson, Jonathan; Inaba, Masanori; Neumann, Sarah; Swane, Andreas A.; Bucher, J.; Simonsen, Søren B.; Theil Kuhn, Luise; Kirkensgaard, Jacob J. K.; Jensen, Kirsten M. Ø.; Oezaslan, Mehtap; Kunz, Sebastian; Arenz, Matthias

Colloidal platinum nanoparticles are obtained via a surfactant-free polyol process in alkaline ethylene glycol. In this popular synthesis, ethylene glycol functions as solvent and reducing agent. The preparation procedure is known for its reproducibility to obtain 1–2 nm nanoparticles, but at the same time the controlled preparation of larger nanoparticles…
