  2. Quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_dot

    Splitting of energy levels for small quantum dots due to the quantum confinement effect. The horizontal axis is the radius, or the size, of the quantum dots and a b * is the exciton's Bohr radius. Band gap energy The band gap can become smaller in the strong confinement regime as the energy levels split up. The exciton Bohr radius can be ...

  3. Particle in a box - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Particle_in_a_box

    The energy gap of a quantum dot is the energy gap between its valence and conduction bands. This energy gap Δ E ( r ) {\displaystyle \Delta E(r)} is equal to the gap of the bulk material E gap {\displaystyle E_{\text{gap}}} plus the energy equation derived particle-in-a-box, which gives the energy for electrons and holes .

  4. Edge states - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edge_states

    The possible energy level of the material that provides the discrete energy values of all possible states in the energy profile diagram can be represented by solving the Hamiltonian of the system. This solution provides the corresponding energy eigenvalues and eigenvectors. Based on the energy eigenvalues, conduction band are the high energy ...

  5. Core–shell semiconductor nanocrystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core–shell_semiconductor...

    The quantized energy levels observed in quantum dots lead to electronic structures that are intermediate between single molecules which have a single HOMO-LUMO gap and bulk semiconductors which have continuous energy levels within bands [7] The electronic structure of quantum dots is intermediate between single molecules and bulk semiconductors.

  6. Atomic orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_orbital

    For example, the orbital 1s (pronounced as the individual numbers and letters: "'one' 'ess'") is the lowest energy level (n = 1) and has an angular quantum number of ℓ = 0, denoted as s. Orbitals with ℓ = 1, 2 and 3 are denoted as p, d and f respectively. The set of orbitals for a given n and ℓ is called a subshell, denoted

  7. Single-electron transistor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-electron_transistor

    In the blocking state all lower energy levels are occupied at the QD and no unoccupied level is within tunnelling range of electrons originating from the source (green 1.). When an electron arrives at the QD (2.) in the non-blocking state it will fill the lowest available vacant energy level, which will raise the energy barrier of the QD ...

  8. Quantum well - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_well

    Quantum wells transmit electrons of any energy above a certain level, while quantum dots pass only electrons of a specific energy. [ 10 ] One possible application is to convert waste heat from electric circuits, e.g., in computer chips, back into electricity, reducing the need for cooling and energy to power the chip.

  9. Light-emitting diode physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode_physics

    A layer of quantum dots is sandwiched between layers of electron-transporting and hole-transporting materials. An applied electric field causes electrons and holes to move into the quantum dot layer and recombine forming an exciton that excites a QD. This scheme is commonly studied for quantum dot display. The tunability of emission wavelengths ...
