New Article on “Efficient Energy Transfer from Quantum Dots to Closely-Bound Dye Molecules” published in Angewandte Chemie

05.11.2024

This work designs a perovskite quantum dot (QD)-dye system for efficient energy transfer (ET) from QDs to dyes occurring via the Dexter exchange-type interaction, at minimal donor-acceptor spectral overlap. Dyes containing a dimethyl-iminium binding group as part of their conjugated system are chosen for high binding affinity to QD surface, crucial for donor-acceptor spatial wavefunction overlap for efficient ET.
