Summary: Colloidal n-doped CdSe and CdSe/ZnS nanoplatelets have been achieved through a photochemical doping method, demonstrating successful additional electron doping at the conduction band edge. The key to successful doping lies in a high surface ligand coverage, while unpassivated surface cations may lead to depletion of the doped electrons.

Summary: This study introduces single photon emitters for the green-yellow spectral range, utilizing a CdSe/ZnSe quantum dot inside a semiconductor tapered nanocolumn acting as a nanoantenna. Despite the presence of multiple optical modes, the nanoantenna efficiently collects and outputs the quantum dot radiation. Arrays of such emitters, fabricated using focused ion beam etching from a II-VI/III-V heterostructure grown via molecular beam epitaxy, demonstrate promising potential for secure free space optical communication lines with an average count rate exceeding 5 MHz and a low second-order correlation function at 220 K.

Summary: Colloidal semiconductor nanoplatelets exhibit strong quantum confinement for electrons and holes in one dimension, with significant increase in Coulomb interaction. The exciton binding energies are evaluated to be much higher compared to bulk CdSe, and comparable to monolayer-thick transition metal dichalcogenides.

Summary: The impact of 60Co gamma irradiation on the photoluminescent properties of CdSe/ZnS semiconductor quantum dots in toluene was investigated. The emission of the quantum dots consisted of three components that changed with increasing gamma ray exposure. QD degradation was accelerated in samples with appreciable headspace, and the formation of larger particles was observed. Dynamic light scattering measurements corroborated these findings.

Summary: Most bulk semiconductors show an increase in band-gap energy with decreasing temperature. However, semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) exhibit non-monotonic temperature dependence of the emission energy at low temperatures. This study uses stable and efficient CdSe/CdS/ZnS QDs as a model system to quantitatively explain the origins of the anomalous emission red-shift at temperatures below 40 K. The red-shift is attributed to the temperature-dependent population of band-edge exciton fine levels, enhanced electron-optical phonon coupling due to increasing population of dark excitons, and temperature-dependent electron-acoustic phonon coupling.

Summary: The angle spectrum method was used to further improve the sensitivity of porous silicon-assembled microcavity biosensors, successfully detecting different concentrations of target DNA with a detection limit of 13.25 pM. This method offers advantages such as being spectrometer free and cost-effective.

Summary: Advances in ultrafast spectroscopy have allowed us to study the dynamics of nontrivial quantum correlations. In this study, we used coherent 2D spectroscopy to analyze the beating signals in CdSe quantum dots at low temperature. The beating signals were found to originate from coherent LO-phonons of CdSe quantum dots, independent of the size of the dots.

Summary: Advancements in ultrafast spectroscopy provide insights into the nontrivial quantum dynamics of CdSe quantum dots. Analysis of positive and negative Fourier components in electronic coherent 2D spectroscopy confirms that the oscillatory signals stem from coherent LO-phonons in CdSe QDs, with no observed dependence on QD size.

Summary: The emission features of Cdse/ZnS quantum dots doped step-index polymer optical fibers are computationally analyzed in this paper. Spontaneous emission and amplified spontaneous emission were calculated based on a theoretical model, and the calculated parameters were derived from experiments. Through comparative analysis, it was found that the pump power and overlap between emission and absorption cross-sections are the main reasons for the red shift of output spectra. The output spectra will rapidly decrease in width and fall back toward the maximum emission cross-section when the pump power exceeds the threshold of amplified spontaneous emission. The final output wavelength is still affected by doping concentration and pump power, while amplified spontaneous emission is not generated when the total number of doped quantum dots is less than 1.27 x 10(12).

Summary: Three-dimensional photoluminescent crypto-images can be created using quantum dots within polymeric micro-objects. By utilizing two-photon polymerization direct laser writing, majority of QDs are expelled from the irradiated area due to monomer cross-linking. Physical phenomena of QDs excitation and surrounding thermal polymerization can be combined to control local density of QDs with nanometric resolution and tune local photoemission.

Summary: In this study, frequency spectra were obtained using the ZUCT and FFT methods from waveform data observed at a macro-tidal beach. The conversion characteristics of the spectra with respect to changes in water depth were investigated and compared with the TMA spectrum applicable to shallow water. The study also proposed the TMA-SOON equation for estimating wave energy and spectrum in the nearshore zone.

Summary: In this contribution, the researchers investigated the control of plasmon-nanoemitter interactions at the nanoscale and achieved reversible pH-responsive photoluminescence switching in CdSe/ZnS Quantum Dots (QDs) nanoemitters. They utilized a pH responsive spacer layer to modulate the distance between the QDs and the gold surface, resulting in significant enhancement of QDs' photoluminescence intensity through changing the pH value. The developed system demonstrated stability, reversibility, and reproducibility in photoluminescence enhancement.

Summary: This article focuses on estimating the spectral correlation function (SCF) in order to quantitatively characterize the cyclostationary properties of random processes in the frequency domain. The proposed double-number fast Fourier transform algorithm (2N-FFT) is outlined as a digital signal processing technique, which ensures accurate estimation of cyclic frequencies without leaving any frequency out of the coverage grid. Numerical simulations demonstrate the high accuracy of the algorithm and its similarity to the theoretical models of observed processes. A comparison with the FFT accumulation method reveals the computational complexity trade-offs offered by the 2N-FFT algorithm.
