Electric Field Enhanced Photoluminescence of CdTe Quantum Dots Encapsulated in Poly (N-Isopropylacrylamide) Nano-Spheres

Description: This article shows an electric field dependent collapse of the poly(N-isopropylacramide) nanospheres and employs the electric field dependence as a means to adjust the photoluminescence process of the quantum dots in a hybrid material.
