Published: December 2023

We derive the general expression for the transient electrophoretic mobility of a spherical colloidal particle with a slip surface in an electrolyte solution. From the general mobility expression, we derive an analytic mobility expression, which is applicable for low particle zeta potentials and arbitrary Debye length. This expression corresponds to the time-dependent transient Henry function.

Laser diodes based on solution-processed semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) present an economical and color-tunable alternative to traditional epitaxial lasers. However, their efficiency is significantly limited by non-radiative Auger recombination, a process that increases lasing thresholds and diminishes device longevity through excessive heat generation. Recent advancements indicate that these limitations can be mitigated by employing spherical quantum wells, or quantum shells (QSs), in place of conventional QDs.
