Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Semiconductor quantum dot (QD) superlattices, which are periodically ordered three dimensional (3D) array structures of QDs, are expected to exhibit novel photo-optical properties arising from the resonant interactions between adjacent QDs. Since the resonant interactions such as long-range dipole-dipole Coulomb coupling and short-range quantum resonance strongly depend on inter-QD nano-space, precise control of the nano-space is essential for physical understanding of the superlattice. Here, we have investigated the pure quantum resonance in the 3D QD superlattice deposited by a layer-by-layer assembly of positively charged polyelectrolytes and negatively charged QDs. The lowest excitation energy decreases exponentially with decreasing the nano-space between the QD layers and also with decreasing the QD size, which is apparently indicative of the quantum resonance between the QDs rather than a dipole-dipole Coulomb coupling.
