Optical Properties of Fluorescent Mixtures: Comparing Quantum Dots to Organic Dyes
Hutchins, Benjamin M.; Morgan, Thomas T.; Ucak-Astarlioglu, Mine G.; Wlilliams, Mary Elizabeth
Journal of Chemical Education, v84 n8 p1301 Aug 2007
The study describes and compares the size-dependent optical properties of organic dyes with those of semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs). The analysis shows that mixtures of QDs contain emission colors that are sum of the individual QD components.
