The existing literature is as rich as it is controversial—for example, size-dependent spectral shifts of the LSPR in small metal nanoparticles, induced by quantum effects, are reported to the red, to the blue or entirely absent. Here we report how complementary experiments on size-selected ...
Thermodynamics - Nanoparticles behaving oddly Volokitin et al make a compelling case for the presence of quantum size effects in the thermodynamic properties of metal nanoparticles. Their results provide the first experimental glimpse into the effects of having odd and even numbers ... SG Louie - ...
Below the exciton Bohr radius there is a splitting of the energy levels. As a result the optical band gap becomes larger. Those semiconductors with a large exciton Bohr radius will exhibit significant size effects for nanoparticles below this value. For example, lead sulfide, PbS has a exciton...
There is a general rule that the bandgap of group II–VI semiconductors becomes narrower as the constituent atoms become heavier. In the case of nanoparticles with diameters of ca. 2–10 nm, the bandgap is increased due to the quantum size effect compared with the bulk semiconductor, and it...

Modelling quantum mechanical effects in the plasmonic response We start by discussing in detail the classical electromagnetics description of plasmons in a nanoparticle dimer, that is, a pair of nanoparticles separated by a small gap21. In classical modelling of the plasmonic interaction between light ...
Quantum size effects in the volume plasmon excitation of bismuth nanoparticles investigated by electron energy loss spectroscopy. Quantum size effects in volume plasmon excitation of bismuth nanoparticles with diameters ranging from 5 to 500 nm have been studied by electron energy los... Wang,W Y.,...
Results indicate that the CuInS2 quantum dots greatly enhance the absorption of UV and visible light due to the p鈥搉 heterojunction being constructed between p-type CuInS2 quantum dots, and n-type TiO2 nanoparticles. Effects of the mass ratio of the TiO2 and CuInS2 and the thermal treatment...
nanoparticles, which are one of the best-suited candidates for quantum superpositions of high-mass objects. It should be noticed that, while we will focus on testing quantum physics, large spatial superpositions of massive systems are bound to be sensitive probes for many other physical phenomena,...
