Coherent Quantum Beating Induced by Lattice Distortion of Perovskite Quantum Dots

Scientists just reported the utilization of lattice distortion in lead halide perovskite quantum dots to control their exciton fine structure. The researchers were led by Prof. Kaifeng Wu from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with Dr. Peter C. Sercel from the Center for Hybrid Organic Inorganic Semiconductors for Energy (CHOISE). CHOISE is an Energy Frontier Research Center (EFRC) of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Office of Science.
