Controlled Deposition and Spectroscopic Signatures of Ordered Multilayer Nanocrystal Assemblies for Optoelectronic Applications

Nanocrystal multilayers on different substrates are prepared via self-assembly of quantum dots at the air–liquid interface resulting in highly ordered solids in which each layer can be controlled for use in potential optoelectronic applications. Time-resolved photoluminescence measurements are consistent with the theoretical picture of exciton decay in controlled stratified environment and reveal efficient energy transfer into silicon substrates.
