Abstract :
The authors presented efficient migration of Mott-Wannier excitons to Frenkel excitons via nonradiative energy transfer in our hybrid organic/inorganic assembly of CdSe/ZnS heteronanocrystals in MDMO-PPV homopolymer, reaching an efficiency level of 72.2%. By changing the donor-acceptor amounts, the authors demonstrated nonradiative energy transfer efficiency tuning in a controlled manner from 28.8% to 72.2%.
