In this work, we present a novel scintillator that incorporates CdSe/ZnS core-shell nanocrystals to utilize both their high quantum fluorescence efficiency in the visible and high optical absorption in the UV for the purpose ...

As a proof-of-concept demonstration, we show that the localized plasmons of metal nanoisland films provide the ability to modify and control the collective spontaneous emission of nanocrystals in their proximity (including ...

To make surface-state emission stronger than band-edge emission for the first time, we proposed and demonstrated plasmon coupling of the surface-state emission from the traps in these CdS nano-luminophors using localized plasmons.
