Abstract
We use inverted ZnSe(core)/CdSe(shell) nanocrystal (NC) heterostructures to study the effect of type I vs. type II carrier localization on lasing performance of NCs. We show that such hetero-NCs can exhibit strong repulsive exciton-exciton interactions, for which lasing is possible in the single-exciton regime at dramatically reduced pump thresholds.
