Traditional TiO2 based photodetectors (PDs) suffer from high dark resistance, which increases loss of photoexcited charge carriers. Here, we report a new and simple way to improve the performance of PDs based on double-walled carbon nanotube (DWCNT)/TiO2 nanotube heterojunctions. Highly ordered TiO2 nanotube arrays we…

To improve the limit of detection in a nanoplasmonic sensor system, the optical performance of the metal nanostructures should be optimized according to the best spectral window of the measurement instrument. We propose that the spectral window from 1460 to 1610 nm can potentially provide ultrahigh instrumental resolu…

Measurements of the emission linewidth of single nanocrystals are usually limited by spectral diffusion. At cryogenic temperatures, the origin of this instability was revealed to be photo-induced, suggesting that the spectral peak position may be stable in the limit of vanishing optical excitation. Here we test this s…
