Suppression of the Auger Recombination Process in CdSe/CdS Core/Shell Nanocrystals.
ACS omega(2019)
Abstract
We investigate the Auger recombination (AR) rate in CdSe/CdS core/shell nanocrystals (NCs) under different interface confinements in terms of the interface bond relaxation mechanism and Fermi's golden rule. We find that the epitaxial layer of CdS can not only depress the influence of the Coulomb interaction between electrons and holes, but can also change the wave function and quantum confinement, resulting in the reduction of the AR rate. Moreover, the AR lifetime of CdSe/CdS core/shell NCs at a fixed entire dimension is lower than that of bare CdSe because of interface confinement of the wave function. A great drop of the AR rate can be achieved by adding an alloying layer that depresses the interface effect. Our predictions are in agreement with the available evidence, suggesting that the proposed approach could provide a general method to explore the AR process in core/shell NCs.
