Observation of efficient transfer from Mott-Wannier to Frenkel excitons in a hybrid semiconductor quantum dot/polymer composite at room temperature

摘要

Efficient conversion from Mott-Wannier to Frenkel excitons is observed at room temperature. The time-resolved photoluminescence shows that the energy transfer rate and efficiency reach 0.262 ns~(-1) and 80.9%, respectively. The energy transfer is enabled by strong dipole-dipole coupling in a hybrid inorganic/organic system of CdSe/ZnS core/shell heteronanocrystal and poly[2-methoxy-5-(3,7-dimethyl-octyloxy)-l,4-phenylenevinylene] homopolymer composite, and the measured energy transfer efficiencies are consistent with the analytical model.
