Published: April 2006

We present a theory of interaction of magnetic Mn ions depending strongly on the number (Ne) of electrons in a quantum dot. For closed electronic shells, we derive the RKKY interaction and its dependence on magnetic ion positions, quantum dot energy quantization omega0, and the number of filled shells Ns. For partially filled shells, the many-electron magnetopolaron effect leads to effective carrier mediated ferromagnetic Mn-Mn interactions. The dependence of the magnetopolaron energy on magnetic ion positions, quantum dot energy quantization omega0, and the number of electrons Ne is predicted.

Nitrogen doped Carbon Quantum Dots (NCQDs) have been synthesized using most economical and easiest hydrothermal process. Here, N-phenyl orthophenylenediamine and citric acid were utilised as a source of nitrogen and carbon for the preparation of NCQDs. The synthesized NCQDs were characterized using experimental techniques like UV - Vis absorption, FT-IR, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray Diffraction (XRD), EDX, dynamic light scattering (DLS), fluorimeter and time resolved fluorescence spectroscopy.

Manipulating the optical landscape of single quantum dots (QDs) is essential to increase the emitted photon output, enhancing their performance as chemical sensors and single-photon sources. Micro-optical structures are typically used for this task, with the drawback of a large size compared to the embedded single emitters. Nanophotonic architectures hold the promise to modify dramatically the emission properties of QDs, boosting light-matter interactions at the nanoscale, in ultracompact devices.

A novel polymer electrolyte based on CsPbI quantum dots (QDs) reinforced polyacrylonitrile (PAN), named as PIL, is exploited to address the low room-temperature (RT) ion conductivity and poor interfacial compatibility of polymer solid-state electrolytes. After optimizing the content of CsPbI QDs, RT ion conductivity of PIL largely increased from 0.077 to 0.
