Ternary Quantum Dots: Synthesis, Properties, and Applications
reviews the latest advances in ternary (I-III-VI) chalcopyrite
quantum dots (QDs), along with their synthesis, properties and
applications. Sections address the fundamental key concepts of
ternary quantum dots, progress in synthesis strategies (i.e.,
organic and aqueous synthesis), and characterization methods (i.e.,
transmission electron microscopy, dynamic light scattering, etc.).
Properties of ternary quantum dots are comprehensively reviewed,
including optical, chemical and physical properties. The factors
and mechanisms of the cytotoxicity of ternary quantum dot-based
nanomaterials are also described. Since ternary chalcopyrite
quantum dots are less toxic and more environmentally benign than
conventional binary II-VI chalcogenide quantum dots, they are being
investigated to replace conventional quantum dots in a range of
applications. Thus, this book reviews QDs in various applications,
such as solar cells, photocatalytic, sensors and bio-applications.
Nanomaterials for Solar Cell Applications provides a review of
recent developments in the field of nanomaterials based solar
cells. It begins with a discussion of the fundamentals of
nanomaterials for solar calls, including a discussion of lifecycle
assessments and characterization techniques. Next, it reviews
various types of solar cells, i.e., Thin film, Metal-oxide,
Nanowire, Nanorod and Nanoporous materials, and more. Other topics
covered include a review of quantum dot sensitized and perovskite
and polymer nanocomposites-based solar cells. This book is an ideal
resource for those working in this evolving field of nanomaterials
and renewable energy.
