Measuring Electron and Hole Transfer in Core/Shell Nanoheterostructures
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Using femtosecond transient absorption and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy, we studied the electron versus hole dynamics in photoexcited quasi-type-II heterostructured nanocrystals with fixed CdTe core radii and varying CdSe shell coverage. By choosing the pump wavelength in resonance with the core or the shell states, respectively, we were able to measure the excited electron and hole dynamics selectively. Both, the core- and the shell-excited CdTe/CdSe nanocrystals showed the same spectral emission and photoluminescence lifetimes, indicating that ultrafast electron and hole transfer across the core/shell interface resulted in the identical long-lived charge transfer state. Both charge carriers have subpicosecond transfer rates through the interface, but the subsequent relaxation rates of the hole (τ(dec) ∼ 800 ps) and electron (τ(avg) ∼ 8 ps) are extremely different. On the basis of the presented transient absorption measurements and fitting of the steady-state spectra, we find that the electron transfer occurs in the Marcus inverted region and mixing between the CdTe exciton and charge transfer states takes place and therefore needs to be considered in the analysis.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
