Two-photon Absorption in ZnO/ZnS Core-shell Quantum Dots
We report a large two-photon absorption (TPA) in ZnO/ZnS and ZnO/ZnS/Ag core/shell quantum dots (QDs). Z-scan and pump-probe techniques with femtosecond laser pulses were employed to characterized the quantum dots. The intrinsic TPA coefficients of ZnO-based core/shell QDs are enhanced with nearly three orders of magnitude compared to that of ZnO bulk counterpart
which is attributable to quantum confinement effect. The TPA cross-section of ZnO-based nanocomposites is determined to be ~4.310
-44
cm
4
sphoton
-1
at the wavelength of 660 nm. This value is at least two orders of magnitude greater than that of ZnS
ZnSe
and CdS QDs. Due to the local field effect
the nonlinear absorption in ZnO/ZnS core/shell QDs is improved as beaded with Ag nano-dots.
