Optical quantum technologies are dependent on quantum emitters with near-perfect optical coherences, meaning highly efficient single-photon emission with long coherence times. CdSe Nanoplatelets (NPLs) present as a promising material for quantum emitters due to their high photoluminescence quantum yields, tunable emission energies, narrow size distribution and fast radiative lifetimes. [1,2] Compared to their colloidal quantum dot analogues, NPLs feature order of magnitude faster radiative lifetimes at cryogenic temperatures, meaning much more efficient photon emission. [2,3] However, to fully understand their potential as quantum emitters, understanding of their optical dephasing processes, and their coherence times, at cryogenic temperatures is necessary. Dephasing can occur due to a variety of processes including scattering with phonons, relaxation from multiple fine structure states, and interactions with charges resulting in spectral diffusion. [4] To understand the dephasing mechanisms, single particle studies are necessary to avoid obfuscation that occurs with ensemble inhomogeneities. At the single particle level, conventional fluorescence techniques are limited due to low photon counts reducing the temporal resolution, and finite dispersing power of the spectrometer restricting the frequency resolution. To extend beyond these limits, we used photon correlation Fourier spectroscopy (PCFS). Photon correlation Fourier spectroscopy allows for increased spectral and temporal resolution by combining the high temporal resolution of photon correlation spectroscopy and high frequency resolution of Fourier spectroscopy. [5] Here, intensity correlations are measured at different interferometer positions, while dithering a mirror, to get a time dependent spectral correlation function. Here, we have used this unique technique on single particle CdSe NPLs, extract the spectral line shape, emitter dynamics, and lower bound for their optical decoherence time.
nanoGe is a prestigious brand of successful science conferences that are developed along the year in different areas of the world since 2009. Our worldwide conferences cover cutting-edge materials topics like perovskite solar cells, photovoltaics, optoelectronics, solar fuel conversion, surface science, catalysis and two-dimensional materials, among many others.
Previously nanoGe Spring Meeting (NSM) and nanoGe Fall Meeting (NFM), MATSUS is a multiple symposia conference focused on a broad set of topics of advanced materials preparation, their fundamental properties, and their applications, in fields such as renewable energy, photovoltaics, lighting, semiconductor quantum dots, 2-D materials synthesis, charge carriers dynamics, microscopy and spectroscopy semiconductors fundamentals, etc.
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics
International Conference on Hybrid and Organic Photovoltaics (HOPV) is celebrated yearly in May. The main topics are the development, function and modeling of materials and devices for hybrid and organic solar cells. The field is now dominated by perovskite solar cells but also other hybrid technologies, as organic solar cells, quantum dot solar cells, and dye-sensitized solar cells and their integration into devices for photoelectrochemical solar fuel production.
Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics
The main topics of the Asia-Pacific International Conference on Perovskite, Organic Photovoltaics and Optoelectronics (IPEROP) are discussed every year in Asia-Pacific for gathering the recent advances in the fields of material preparation, modeling and fabrication of perovskite and hybrid and organic materials. Photovoltaic devices are analyzed from fundamental physics and materials properties to a broad set of applications. The conference also covers the developments of perovskite optoelectronics, including light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
The International Conference on Perovskite Thin Film Photovoltaics Perovskite Photonics and Optoelectronics (NIPHO) is the best place to hear the latest developments in perovskite solar cells as well as on recent advances in the fields of perovskite light-emitting diodes, lasers, optical devices, nanophotonics, nonlinear optical properties, colloidal nanostructures, photophysics and light-matter coupling.
