Chapter 12, Problem 100E
An ideal quantum dot for use in TVs does not contain any cadmium due to concerns about disposal. One potential material for this purpose is InP, which adopts the zinc blende (ZnS) structure (face-centered cubic).
The unit cell edge length is 5.869 A.
- If the quantum dot is shaped like a cube, how many of each type of atom are there in a cubic crystal with an edge length of 3.00 nm?
- If one of the nanoparticles in part (a) emits blue light and the other emits orange light, which color is emitted by the crystal with the 3.00- nm edge length? With the 5.00-nm edge length?
