Abstract

The local surface plasmon effects of colloidal cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) were observed at a low temperature (approximately 5 K). As the wavelength between the CdSe QDs and metals is precisely tuned, the enhancement effects of CdSe photoluminescence (PL) significantly increase because of the increased coupling effects between the plasmonic fields of the metal surfaces of Au and Ag and the exciton states of a single CdSe QD. The PL enhancement effect of Au was observed to be approximately six times higher than that of Ag because of enhanced coupling. This result demonstrates the importance of wavelength matching in maximizing the surface plasmon effects and achieving enhanced PL in various device applications.
