All nanomaterials share a common feature of large surface-to-volume ratio, making their
surfaces the dominant player in many physical and chemical processes. Surface ligands …

Colloidal quantum dot solar cells (QDSCs) are promising candidates amongst third
generation photovoltaics due to their bandgap tunability, facile low‐temperature ink …

Energy levels in the band gap arising from surface states can dominate the optical and
electronic properties of semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs). Recent theoretical …

Photolithography is an important manufacturing process that relies on using photoresists,
typically polymer formulations, that change solubility when illuminated with ultraviolet light …

Here we demonstrate materials and operating conditions that allow for high-resolution
printing of layers of quantum dots (QDs) with precise control over thickness and submicron …

Among cadmium-free quantum dots (QDs), ternary or quaternary chalcogenide
semiconductor QDs composed of groups 11, 13, and 16 elements have extensively been …

Solution-processed inorganic solar cells are a promising low-cost alternative to first-
generation solar cells,. Solution processing at low temperatures combined with the use of …

We investigate simple halides and pseudohalides as an important class of inorganic ligands
for nanocrystals (NCs) in solution phase ligand exchange. These short, robust, and easy to …

Copper–indium–selenide (CISe) quantum dots (QDs) are a promising alternative to the toxic
cadmium-and lead-chalcogenide QDs generally used in photovoltaics due to their low …

We report all-inorganic solar cells based on solution-processed BiI3. Two-electron donor
solvents such as tetrahydrofuran and dimethylformamide were found to form adducts with …
