Abstract:
The development and properties of doped nanomaterials including doped titanium dioxide, doped silicon, and doped cadmium telluride are reviewed, as well as their ultrafast dynamics. Doping nanomaterials provides a flexible way to tune to the properties of the materials while maintaining their high surface areas. The electronic, optical, photochemical, photoelectrochemical, photocatalytic and photoexcited relaxation properties can be tuned towards the desired direction by doping different elements. The materials can be engineered towards specific applications through careful selection of the dopants.Keywords: DOPED NANOMATERIALS; CDTE; CDSE; CDS; TIO2; SILICON; ULTRAFAST DYNAMICS; ELECTRONIC PROPERTIES
