Shubnikov de Haas oscillations of a two-dimensional electron gas in a modulation-doped Zn0.80Cd0.20Se/ZnS0.06Se0.94 single quantum well

The magnetotransport properties of the two-dimensional (2D) electron gas confined in a modulation-doped Zn0.80Cd0.20Se/ZnS0.06Se0.94 single quantum well structure were studied at temperatures down to 0.35 K in magnetic fields up to 7.5 T. Well resolved 2D Shubnikovde Haas (SdH) oscillations were observed, although the conductivity of the sample in the as grown state was dominated by a bulk parallel conduction layer. After removing most of the parallel conduction layer by wet chemical etching the amplitude and number of SdH oscillations increased. From the temperature dependence of the amplitude the effective mass of the electrons was estimated as 0.17 m(0). Copyright (C) 1996 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd

色散效应对GaAs太阳电池双层减反射膜的影响

考虑双层减反射膜材料的折射率色散效应，采用光学干涉矩阵法计算了SiO2／ZnSe和SiO2／ZnS两种GaAs太阳电池双层减反射膜的反射率与波长的函数曲线，以及加权平均反射率随着顶层减反射膜SiO2厚度变化的函数曲线，并与未考虑色散效应的情况进行了对比．计算结果表明，色散效应对双层减反射膜的反射率有较大的影响，特别是对300-500nm波长范围的影响更大，且对不同材料的减反射膜的影响也是不同的．与未考虑色散效应的情况相比，考虑色散效应后，SiO2／ZnSe双层减反射膜的最小加权平均反射率从1．14％增加到1．55％，而SiO2／ZnS双层减反射膜的最小加权平均反射率却从1．49％减小到1.46％．

Optical anisotropy of InAs submonolayer quantum wells in a (311) GaAs matrix

The steplike density of states obtained from reflectance-difference spectroscopy demonstrates that ultrathin InAs layers should be regarded as two-dimensional quantum wells rather than isolated clusters, even for the sample with only 1/3 monolayer InAs in (311)-oriented GaAs. The degree of anisotropy is within the intrinsic anisotropy of (311)-oriented ultrathin quantum wells, indicating that there is little structural or strain anisotropy in the InAs islands.

Low-temperature synthesis of oil-soluble CdSe, CdS, and CdSe/CdS core - Shell nanocrystals by using various water-soluble anion precursors

Colloidal CdSe and CdS quantum dots were synthesized at low temperatures (60-90 degrees C) by a two-phase approach at a toluene-water interface. Oil-soluble cadmium myristate (Cd-MA) was used as cadmium source, and water-soluble Na2S, thiourea, NaHSe, Na2SeSO3, and selenourea were used as sulfur and selenium sources, respectively. When a cadmium precursor in toluene and a selenium precursor in water were mixed, CdSe nanocrystals were achieved at a toluene-water interface in the range of 1.2-3.2 nm in diameter. Moreover, we also synthesized highly luminescent CdSe/CdS core-shell quantum dots by a two-phase approach using poorly reactive thiourea as sulfur source in an autoclave at 140 degrees C or under normal pressure at 90 degrees C. Colloidal solutions of CdSe/CdS core-shell nanocrystals exhibit a photoluminescence quantum yield (PL QY) up to 42% relative to coumarin 6 at room temperature.
