Lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) are one of the most promising next-generation batteries
because they have higher theoretical capacities, lower cost, and smaller environmental …

Over the past few decades, coherent broadband spectroscopy has been widely used to
improve our understanding of ultrafast processes (eg, photoinduced electron transfer, proton …

Chiral‐induced spin selectivity (CISS) effect provides innovative approach to spintronics and
quantum‐based devices for chiral materials. Different from the conventional ferromagnetic …

The cylindrical quasi-one-dimensional shape of colloidal semiconductor nanorods (NRs)
gives them unique electronic structure and optical properties. In addition to the band gap …

The sophistication with which we can now prepare and characterize inorganic nanoparticles
has inspired new areas of research into the fundamental properties and applications of …

Surface effects significantly affect the photoexcitation dynamics of colloidal nanocrystals, but
their influence is hard to study because of sample complexity and the typically small …

In this paper we critically examine the literature and provide new data on fundamental
optical properties of II–VI quantum dots (QDs). Specifically, we examine the integrated …

Coherent superpositions among eigenstates are of interest in fields as diverse as
photosynthesis and quantum computation. In this report, we used two-dimensional …

In this work we report a study of the role of coherence dynamics in the intermediate coupling
regime of electronic energy transfer (EET). Starting from the idea that in the intermediate …

Femtosecond transient grating and photon echo spectroscopies with a sub-20 fs time
resolution are applied to allophycocyanin (APC), a protein located at the base of the …
