Journal Article
A molecular ruler based on plasmon coupling of single gold and silver nanoparticles
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that plasmon coupling can be used to monitor distances between single pairs of gold and silver nanoparticles and the kinetics of single DNA hybridization events are studied.
Journal Article
Near-Infrared Localized Surface Plasmon Resonances Arising from Free Carriers in Doped Quantum Dots
TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) arising from p-type carriers in vacancy-doped semiconductor quantum dots, which opens up possibilities for light harvesting, nonlinear optics, optical sensing and manipulation of solid-state processes in single nanocrystals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Colloidal nanocrystal heterostructures with linear and branched topology
Delia J. Milliron,Steven M. Hughes,Yi Cui,Liberato Manna,Jingbo Li,Lin-Wang Wang,A. Paul Alivisatos +6 more
TL;DR: A general approach for fabricating inorganically coupled colloidal quantum dots and rods, connected epitaxially at branched and linear junctions within single nanocrystal heterostructures, which allows investigation of potential applications ranging from quantum information processing to artificial photosynthesis.
Journal ArticleDOI
A single-electron transistor made from a cadmium selenide nanocrystal
David L. Klein,Richard Roth,Richard Roth,Andrew K. L. Lim,Andrew K. L. Lim,A. Paul Alivisatos,A. Paul Alivisatos,Paul L. McEuen,Paul L. McEuen +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors present measurements of electrical transport in a single-electron transistor made from a colloidal nanocrystal of cadmium selenide, which enables the number of charge carriers on the nanocrystals to be tuned directly, and so permits the measurement of the energy required for adding successive charge carriers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Linearly Polarized Emission from Colloidal Semiconductor Quantum Rods
TL;DR: Single-molecule luminescence spectroscopy measurements on CdSe quantum rods with an aspect ratio between 1 and 30 confirm a sharp transition from nonpolarized to purely linearly polarized emission at a aspect ratio of 2.
