AbstractColloidal CdSe nanocrystals (NCs) have shown promise in applications ranging from LED displays to medical imaging. Their unique photophysics depend sensitively on the presence or absence of surface defects. Using simulations, we show that CdSe NCs are inherently defective; even for stoichiometric NCs with perfect ligand passivation and no vacancies or defects, we still observe that the low energy spectrum is dominated by dark, surface-associated excitations, which are more numerous in larger NCs. Surface structure analysis shows that the majority of these states involve holes that are localized on two-coordinate Se atoms. As chalcogenide atoms are not passivated by any Lewis base ligand, varying the ligand should not dramatically change the number of dark states, which we confirm by simulating three passivation schemes. Our results have significant implications for understanding CdSe NC photophysics, and suggest that photochemistry and short-range photoinduced charge transfer should be much more facile than previously anticipated.

ABSTRACTThe effect of surface defects on the performance of TiAl-base alloys is an issue of importance in contemplating their application into engine components. Due to the relatively low ductility and low impact resistance of gamma alloys the validation of models for estimating economic life and for safe-life approaches employed for components becomes of great importance. Surface defects can be attributed to various sources during the manufacturing or handling of the components. In fact, little is known about the detrimental effects of surface defects on gamma alloys. In the present study, the effect of artificially introduced surface defects, on the high cycle fatigue behavior of the Ti-47Al-2W-0.5Si, will be investigated and correlated with the crack growth behavior at 700°C. The results are reported in the form of the Kitagawa diagram in which the safe and unsafe zones for crack advance and fracture are defined.
