Coupling in Quantum Dot Molecular Hetero-Assemblies
Carlo Nazareno Dibenedetto, Elisabetta Fanizza, Liberato De Caro +8
The design of large-scale colloidal quantum dots (QDs) assemblies and the investigation of their interaction with their close environment are of great interest for improving QD-bas…
Bandgap in orthorhombic thin lead halide perovskite (CsPbBr3) nanosheets measured from STEM-EELS
Rosaria Brescia, Stefano Toso, Quentin Ramasse +4
Inorganic lead halide perovskites are promising candidates for optoelectronic applications, due to their bandgap tunability, high photoluminescence quantum yield, and narrow emissi…
Core/Shell CdSe/CdS Bone-Shaped Nanocrystals with a Thick and Anisotropic Shell as Optical Emitters
Andrea Castelli, Balaji Dhanabalan, Anatolii Polovitsyn +11
Colloidal core/shell nanocrystals are key materials for optoelectronics, enabling control over essential properties via precise engineering of the shape, thickness, and crystal lat…
Extending the colloidal transition metal dichalcogenide library to ReS2 nanosheets for application in gas sensing and electrocatalysis
Beatriz Martin-Garcia, Davide Spirito, Sebastiano Bellani +12
Among the large family of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), recently ReS2 has stood out due to its nearly layer-independent optoelectronic and physicochemical properties. T…
Octapod-shaped CdSe nanocrystals hosting Pt with high-mass activity for the hydrogen evolution reaction
Leyla Najafi, Sebastiano Bellani, Andrea Castelli +8
The design of efficient electrocatalysts for electrochemical water splitting with minimal amount of precious metal is crucial to attain renewable and sustainable energy conversion.…
Niobium disulphide (NbS)-based (heterogeneous) electrocatalysts for an efficient hydrogen evolution reaction
Leyla Najafi, Sebastiano Bellani, Reinier Oropesa-Nuñez +8
The design of efficient and cost-effective catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is the key for molecular hydrogen (H2) production from electrochemical water splittin…
Imaging localized plasmon resonances in vacancy doped Cu3-xP semiconductor nanocrystals with STEM-EELS
Giovanni Bertoni, Rosaria Brescia, Luca De Trizio +2
Copper binary compounds are often intrinsic p-type semiconductors due to the presence of Cu(I) vacancies, with corresponding hole carriers in the valence band. If the free carrier…
Broadband excitation spectrum of bulk crystals and thin layers of PtTe
Barun Ghosh, Francesca Alessandro, Marilena Zappia +8
We explore the broadband excitation spectrum of bulk PtTe using electron energy loss spectroscopy and density functional theory. In addition to infrared modes related to intrab…
Colloidal Synthesis of Strongly Fluorescent CsPbBr3 Nanowires with Width Tunable down to the Quantum Confinement Regime
Muhammad Imran, Francesco Di Stasio, Zhiya Dang +6
We report the colloidal synthesis of strongly fluorescent CsPbBr3 perovskite nanowires (NWs) with rectangular section and with tuneable width, from 20 nm (exhibiting no quantum con…
Hydration induced spin glass state in a frustrated Na-Mn-O triangular lattice
Ioanna Bakaimi, Rosaria Brescia, Craig M. Brown +3
Birnessite compounds are stable across a wide range of compositions that produces a remarkable diversity in their physical, electrochemical and functional properties. These are hyd…
