Abstract

The tuning of CdSe quantum dot (QDs) sizes, and consequently their corresponding two-photon absorption (TPA) cross section, has been systematically investigated. As the size (diameter) of the quantum dots increases, the TPA cross section is found to be empirically related via a power-law proportionality of 3.5+/-0.5 and 5.6+/-0.7 to the diameters of CdSe and CdTe QDs, respectively. The results are tentatively rationalized via a theoretical model of two-photon excitation properties in a system incorporating excitons and defects.
