Irradiation-induced bleaching occurs in the spectra of glass-embedded CdSe nanocrystals due to their ionization resulting from charge transfer between them and color centers formed in glass by electron irradiation. No bleaching in the spectra of CdSe nanocrystals encapsulated in gelatine is observed because no deep traps are formed in the matrix under electron irradiation.
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.
