  • New issues arise as to surface characterization, quantification and interface formation. Surface and interface control of CdSe nanocrystal systems, one of the most studied and useful nanostructures. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have been the subject of much interest for both fundamental reseach and technical applications in recent years, due mainly to their strong size dependent properties and excellent chemical processibility. In this dissertation, the synthesis of CdSe quantum dots were synthesized by pyrolysis of high-temperature organometallic reagents. In order to modify the size and quality of quantum dots, we controlled the growth temperature and the relative amount of precursors to be injected into the coordinating solvent. Moreover, an effective surface passivation of monodisperse nanocrystals was achieved by overcoating them with a higher-band-gap material. Synthesized CdSe quantum dots were studied to evaluate the optical, electronic and structural properties using UV-absorption, and photoluminescence measurement.

  • The potential curves of OH bonds of liquid water are inhomogeneous because of a variety of interactions with other molecules and this leads to a wide distribution of vibrational frequency which hampers our understanding of the structure and dynamics of water molecules. Mixed quantum/classical (QM/CM) calculation methods are powerful theoretical techniques to help us analyze experimental data of various vibrational spectroscopies to study such inhomogeneous systems. In a type of those approaches, the interaction energy between OH bonds and other molecules is approximately represented by the interaction between the charges located at the appropriate interaction sites of water molecules. For this purpose, we re-calculated the values of charges by comparing the approximate interaction energies with quantum chemical interaction energies. We determined a set of charges at the TIP4P charge sites which better represents the quantum mechanical potential curve of OH bonds of liquid water.

  • Generalized multichannel quantum defect theory [C. H. Greene et al. Phys. Rev., A26, 2441 (1982)] is implemented to the vibrational predissociation of triatomic van der Waals molecules. As this is the first one of such an application, the dependences of the quantum defect parameters on energy and radius are examined carefully. Calculation shows that, in the physically important region, quantum defect parameters remain smoothly varying functions of energy for this system as in atomic applications, thus allowing us very coarse energy mesh calculations for the photodissociation spectra. The choice of adiabatic or diabatic potentials as reference potentials for the calculation of quantum defect parameters as done by Mies and Julienne [J. Chem. Phys., 80, 2526 (1984)] can not be used for this system. Physically motivated reference potentials that may be generally applicable to all kinds of systems are utilized instead. In principle, implementation can be done to any other predissociation processes with the same method.

  • Based on the exact quantization rule for the nonrelativistic Schrodinger equation, the exact quantization rule for the relativistic one-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation is suggested. Using the new quantization rule, the exact relativistic energies for exactly solvable potentials, e.g. harmonic oscillator, Morse, and Rosen-Morse II type potentials, are obtained. Consequently the new quantization rule is found to be exact for one-dimensional spinless relativistic quantum systems. Though the physical meanings of the new quantization rule have not been fully understood yet, the present formal derivation scheme may shed light on understanding relativistic quantum systems more deeply.

  • Orientational alignment patterns have been proven to be that they are very useful for realizing diverse properties of liquid crystals. Here we produced the patterns combining interfered laser beams. A photo-isomerizable polymer including azo unit, which induces nematic liquid crystal alignment to the polarized laser light, was used as the alignment to layer. Double irradiations into two orthogonal directions brought the orientation patterns similar to the checkerboard. It indicates the possibility of bistability on those patterns.

  • Relations between fitted parameters for photoionization spectra both below and above the thresholds in the systems involving 3 channels are obtained using phase-shifted version of the multichannel quantum-defect theory. Analytical continuation of the photoionization cross sections in the form of ${\langle}{\sigma}_{below}{\rangle}_{v_{below}}={\sigma}_{above}$ examined using several representations.

  • In this paper, we fabricated the optoelectronic device based on Cadmium selenide(CdSe) nanocrystal quantum dots (NQDs)/single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNTs) heterostructure using dieletrophoretic force. The efficient charge transfer phenomena from CdSe to SWNT make CdSe-Pyridine(py)-SWNT unique heterostructures for novel optoelectronic device. The conductivity of CdSe-py-SWNT was increased when it was exposed at ultra violet(UV) lamp, and varied as a function of wavelength of incident light.

  • The InAs multi-quantum dots (MQDs) solar cell and InGaAs multi-quantum wells (MQWs) solar cell to cover 1.1 eV and 1.3 eV were designed by 1D poisson, respectively. The MQDs and MQWs of 5, 10, 15 layers were grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The photo luminescence results showed that the 5 period stacked MQDs have the highest intensity at around 1.1 eV with 57.6 meV full width at half maximum (FWHM). Also we can observe 10 period stacked MQWs peak position which has highest intensity at 1.31 eV with 12.37 meV FWHM. The density and size of QDs were observed by reflection high energy electron diffraction pattern and atomic force microscope. Futhermore, AlGaAs/GaAs sandwiched tunnel junctions were modified according to the width of GaAs layer on p-type GaAs substrates. The structures with GaAs width of 30 nm and 50 nm have backward diode characteristics. In contrast, tunnel diode characteristics were observed in the 20 nm of that of sample.

  • The continuous variable quantum key distribution has been considered to have practical solution to provide high key rate. This paper explains the difference between DV-QKD and CV-QKD schemes. It describes CV-QKD as a theory that satisfies the uncertainty principle using continuous variable and homodyne detector. We shows varying length of secret key in QKD systems and amount of the exposed information to amplify privacy.
