Recent experiments on 8-nanometer-diameter lead selenide quantum dots have given the best results so far: Ultraviolet-light photons--albeit at a wavelength found sparingly in sunlight--released seven electrons apiece. Lead selenide is a semiconductor that has applications in infrared detectors and thermal imaging and can be tuned to be more sensitive to specific infrared wavelengths. Schaller and Klimov worked instead with nanocrystals, about 5 nanometers in diameter, of the semiconductor compound lead selenide. |
