Abstract
We demonstrate electronic energy transfer between close packed quantum dots using cw and time resolved photoluminescence. Optically clear and thin, close packed quantum dot solids were prepared from mixtures of small and large CdSe quantum dots (38.5 and 62 Å, ). Quenching of the luminescence (lifetime) of the small dots accompanied by enhancement of the luminescence (lifetime) of the large dots is consistent with long-range resonance transfer of electronic excitations from the more electronically confined states of the small dots to the higher excited states of the large dots.
