Abstract
High Resolution Image Download MS PowerPoint Slide The luminescence linewidth of individual silicon nanocrystals was characterized by single-dot spectroscopy, and an ultranarrow linewidth of ∼200 μeV at 10 K was found. This value is, in fact, limited by system resolution and represents only the upper limit of the homogeneous linewidth. In addition, the effect of the matrix was investigated for nanocrystals coated with organic ligands, embedded in silicon dioxide, as well as for nanocrystals with only a thin passivating layer. It was found that, depending on the matrix, the room-temperature bandwidth may vary by an order of magnitude, where values as small as ∼12 meV (∼5 nm) at 300 K were detected for nanocrystals with a thin passivation. The observed values for silicon nanocrystals are similar and even surpass some of those for direct-band-gap quantum dots. The narrow linewidth at room temperature enables the use of silicon nanocrystals for nontoxic narrow-band labeling of biomolecules and for application as phosphors in white-light-emitting devices.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model 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 it
