Excitonics of hybrid nanostructures arranged with mixed dimensionality
Hernandez-Martinez, Pedro L.; Govorov, A. O.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan (American Physical Society, 2012)We present a complete study of the F\"{o}rster-type nonradiative energy transfer in hybrid nanostructures composed of nanoparticles, nanowires and quantum wells, and investigate the effects of quantum confinement in different ... -
Excitonics of semiconductor quantum dots and wires for lighting and displays
Guzelturk, B.; Martinez, P. L. H.; Zhang, Q.; Xiong, Q.; Sun, H.; Sun, X. W.; Govorov, A. O.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan (Wiley-VCH Verlag, 2013)In the past two decades, semiconductor quantum dots and wires have developed into new, promising classes of materials for next-generation lighting and display systems due to their superior optical properties. In particular, ... -
Förster-type nonradiative energy transfer for assemblies of arrayed nanostructures: confinement dimension vs stacking dimension
Hernandez-Martinez, P. L.; Govorov, A. O.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan (American Chemical Society, 2014-02-11)Forster-type nonradiative energy transfer (NRET) provides us with the ability to transfer excitation energy between proximal nanostructures with high efficiency under certain conditions. Nevertheless, the well-known Forster ... -
Generalized theory of förster-type nonradiative energy transfer in nanostructures with mixed dimensionality
Hernandez-Martinez, P. L.; Govorov, A. O.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan (American Chemical Society, 2013-04-16)Forster-type nonradiative energy transfer (NRET) is widely used, especially utilizing nanostructures in different combinations and configurations. However, the existing well-accepted Forster theory is only for the case of ... -
Phonon-assisted exciton transfer into silicon using nanoemitters: the role of phonons and temperature effects in förster resonance energy transfer
Yeltik A.; Guzelturk, B.; Hernandez-Martinez, P. L.; Govorov, A. O.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan (American Chemical Society, 2013)We study phonon-assisted Forster resonance energy transfer (FRET) into an indirect band-gap semiconductor using nanoemitters. The unusual temperature dependence of this energy transfer, which is measured using the donor ... -
Photogeneration of hot plasmonic electrons with metal nanocrystals: quantum description and potential applications
Govorov, A. O.; Zhang, H.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan; Gun’ko, Y. K. (Elsevier Ltd, 2014-02)he paper reviews physical concepts related to the collective dynamics of plasmon excitations in metal nanocrystals with a focus on the photogeneration of energetic carriers. Using quantum linear response theory, we analyze ... -
Plasmonic metamaterials and nanocomposites with the narrow transparency window effect in broad extinction spectra
Zhang, H.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan; Govorov, A. O. (American Chemical Society, 2014)We propose and describe plasmonic nanomaterials with unique optical properties. These nanostructured materials strongly attenuate light across a broad wavelength interval ranged from 400 nm to S pm but exhibit a narrow ... -
Simple and complex metafluids and metastructures with sharp spectral features in a broad extinction spectrum: particle-particle interactions and testing the limits of the Beer-Lambert law
Besteiro, L. V.; Gungor K.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan; Govorov, A. O. (American Chemical Society, 2017)Metallic nanocrystals (NCs) are useful instruments for light manipulation around the visible spectrum. As their plasmonic resonances depend heavily on the NC geometry, modern fabrication techniques afford a great degree ... -
Study of exciton transfer in dense quantum dot nanocomposites
Guzelturk, B.; Hernandez-Martinez, P. L.; Sharma, V. K.; Coskun, Y.; Ibrahimova, V.; Tuncel, D.; Govorov, A. O.; Sun, X. W.; Xiong, Q.; Demir, Hilmi Volkan (Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014)Nanocomposites of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) integrated into conjugated polymers (CPs) are key to hybrid optoelectronics, where engineering the excitonic interactions at the nanoscale is crucial. For such excitonic ...
