Title :
Single semiconductor nanocrystals luminescence decay and photon statistics
Author_Institution :
Bordeaux Univ., Talence
Abstract :
The temperature dependence of the luminescence decay of single CdSe/ZnS quantum dots, shows that the band edge luminescence arises from two thermally mixed fine structure states: the dark ground state and the lowest bright one
