Carrier Multiplication and Its Reduction by Photodoping in Colloidal InAs Quantum Dots
Open accessAbstract
Carrier (exciton) multiplication in colloidal InAs/CdSe/ZnSe core−shell quantum dots (QDs) is investigated using terahertz time-domain spectroscopy, time-resolved transient absorption, and quasi-continuous wave excitation spectroscopy. For excitation by high-energy photons (∼2.7 times the band gap energy), highly efficient carrier multiplication (CM) results in the appearance of multi-excitons, amounting to ∼1.6 excitons per absorbed photon. Multi-exciton recombination occurs within tens of picoseconds via Auger-type processes. Photodoping (i.e., photoinjection of an exciton) of the QDs prior to excitation results in a reduction of the CM efficiency to ∼1.3. This exciton-induced reduction of CM efficiency can be explained by the twofold degeneracy of the lowest conduction band energy level. We discuss the implications of our findings for the potential application of InAs QDs as light absorbers in solar cells.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
