Abstract

Hot carrier transfer of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs) plays an important role for solar energy conversion. In this chapter, effects of quantum confinement of colloidally synthesized semiconductor NCs on hot carrier transfer and the carrier transfer mechanism are discussed on the basis of state-selective excitation of femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy and initial bleach yield of band-edge state. The role of phonon emission from higher excited states on hot carrier transfer in quantum-confined NCs is revealed. In addition, carrier manipulation of a single semiconductor NC by plasmonic nanostructures is demonstrated with single particle spectroscopy. The distance dependence between a single semiconductor quantum dot (QD) and a plasmonic nanostructure on luminescence intensity and lifetime of a single semiconductor QD is discussed in terms of the electromagnetic enhancement of absorption and luminescence and energy transfer quenching by the plasmonic nanostructure.
