RESUMO

In this work we present a study of optical properties in CdTe quantum dots in doped glasses. We present absorption spectra as a function of temperature and we calculate these absorption spectra considering the inhomogeneous broadening due to the quantum dot size distribution and the homogeneous broadening, due mainly to electron-phonon interactions. The results show that the homogeneous width increases as the quantum dot size decreases. Also, we obtain size distributions with standard deviation (depending on the sample) of 5.8% or 6.0% for samples grown with a two-step heat-treatment. We also present time resolved photoluminescence measurements in a nanosecond time scale for CdTe quantum dots as a function of sample temperature (20 K and 120 K). We spectrally resolved the photoluminescence and we observe mainly two peaks, a dominant one with Stokes Shift in relation to the absorption spectra and a less intense one at lower energy. We measure the decay with decay times varyuing from 95 ns to about one microsecond. The photoluminescence most intense peak presents the faster decay time and is related to band-to-band recombination. We attribute the photoluminescence less intense peak with slower decay times to trap states
