Popis: Single dot spectroscopy is performed on two-color CdSe/ZnS/CdSe core/barrier/shell nanostructures. Unlike quantum dots cores, these systems have two phases with which to emit and ultimately examine for blinking analysis. These particles are brighter than conventional quantum dots and also show the photoluminescence (PL) intensity and energy fluctuations characteristic of quantum dots. Single dot spectral diffusion analysis yields no measureable energy shift correlation between the core and the shell on the 200 ms time scale. In contrast, the single dot PL from the CdSe shell has narrower linewidths than the CdSe core, indicating differences in its spectral diffusion on shorter timescales.
