Owing to their large surface-to-volume ratio, it easily introduces dopants to CQDs surface. Hence, by incorporating oxidation into the energy band using KNO2, PbS CQD photoconductors exhibit an extrinsic response under 3000 nm illumination.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
