摘要: Three-photon absorption (3PA) and three-photon-excited photoluminescence (3PE-PL) of ZnSe/ZnS copper-doped ZnSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots (QDs) in aqueous solutions have been unambiguously determined by Z-scan 3PE-PL measurements with 200- fs laser pulses at 1000 nm. The 3PA cross-section is as high 3.5 × 10-77 cm6 s2 photon-2 for 4.1 nm-sized, QDs, while their below-band-edge PL found to be nearly cubic dependent on the excitation intensity, efficiency enhanced ~ 20 fold compared undoped ZnSe/ZnS QDs.
