Photon Statistics from Yb3+-Doped CsPbCl3 are Inconsistent with Quantum Cutting

Vincent R. M. Benning, Faris Horani, Daniel R. Gamelin +1

CsPb(Cl1-xBrx)3:Yb3+ has been widely reported as a broadband quantum-cutting material with a photoluminescence quantum yield exceeding 100%, making it a promising candidate for enh…

Vanishing quantum confinement enables bright and thermally excited multi-carrier emission from semiconductor nanocrystals

Tjom Arens, Sander J. W. Vonk, A. Willem Vlasblom +5

Recently, nanocrystals in the regime of vanishing quantum confinement-termed bulk nanocrystals (BNCs)-have demonstrated remarkable optical gain characteristics. While their high-po…

Controlling viscosity to engineer focal conic domains in photonic cellulose nanocrystal films

Diogo V. Saraiva, Lotte Polling, Ivo R. Vermaire +3

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) form cholesteric architectures that can have color specific reflectivity and enable sustainable photonic films. However, achieving uniform color, supp…

Hot-carrier trapping preserves high quantum yields but limits optical gain in InP-based quantum dots

Sander J. W. Vonk, P. Tim Prins, Tong Wang +10

Indium phosphide is the leading material for commercial applications of colloidal quantum dots. To date, however, the community has failed to achieve successful operation under str…
