A comprehensive guide to the synthesis and optical properties of quantum dots

Quantum Dots: Synthesis, Characterization, and Optical Investigations offers a detailed exploration of the synthesis and optical studies of self-assembled quantum dots (QDs), with an emphasis on the ability to modify nanoelectronic properties through structural adjustments. This book covers the latest developments in nanotechnology and advanced procedures, aiming to benefit scientific communities, drive economic growth, and build a sustainable future.

A novel aspect of this work is its focus on artificial intelligence (AI) applications for the synthesis and optimization of quantum dots. AI-driven approaches leverage machine learning algorithms to predict and control the properties of QDs based on factors like composition, size, and shape. Through AI, the synthesis process can be optimized to achieve specific optical and electronic characteristics, thereby enhancing the functionality and uniformity of quantum dots. AI technology also facilitates rapid screening of potential QD configurations to achieve optimal results.

Photoelectrochemical Engineering for Solar Harvesting: Chemistry, Materials, Devices provides an up-to-date appraisal of the photon engineering of innovative catalysts for solar energy harvesting. This book analyzes the overall progress, potential challenges, and the industrialization of new catalysts in the near future. The primary emphasis is on experimental approaches from materials synthesis to device applications, however, there is also an introduction to relevant photochemistry concepts. This book is suitable for materials scientists and chemists who, through the use of photonics, are in continuous pursuit of improving the efficiencies of different devices used to capture solar energy for the generation of sustainable fuel.

Sunlight-driven fuel synthesis is the most sustainable and potentially economical option for producing energy vectors through water splitting. Thus, this book focuses on the design of photocatalysts and water oxidation catalysts, as artificial photosynthesis and hydrogen fuel production via water oxidation (in place of fossil fuels) are two promising approaches towards renewable energy.

International Innovation interviewed Prof. Claude Debru, President of EurASc

International Innovation is not a peer-reviewed journal; instead it offers a unique forum for communication and dissemination of research. They have interviewed Prof. Claude Debru, President of the European Academy of Sciences about its history and activities. 

Abstract: “EURASC is made up of distinguished scholars and engineers committed to promoting fundamental and applied science and technology for the purpose of fostering social and economic development. President Claude Debru ruminates on the Academy’s history and discusses the ways it recognises excellence in science […]”
