Interfacial Charge Transfer in Lead Sulfide/Cadmium Sulfide Quantum Dot–Monolayer Molybdenum Disulfide Heterostructures
We investigate the ultrafast interfacial charge transfer dynamics in mixed-dimensional PbS/CdS quantum dot (QD)–monolayer MoS 2 heterostructures exhibiting a type-II band alignment. These 0D–2D heterostructures were assembled using oleic acid-capped PbS/CdS QDs with systematically varied core sizes deposited onto molecular beam epitaxy-grown monolayer MoS 2 . Steady-state and time-resolved optical spectroscopies revealed pronounced bidirectional charge transfer between the 0D and 2D components, involving both electron and hole exchange across the interface. The quenching of the monolayer MoS 2 A-exciton bleach and the modifications of its decay dynamics provide direct evidence for efficient hole transfer from photoexcited MoS 2 into the PbS QD core. Concurrently, attenuation of the QD ground-state bleach and the emergence of ultrafast decay components confirmed electron transfer from photoexcited QDs to monolayer MoS 2 . Both hole and electron transfer processes are dependent on the QD core size, with smaller cores enabling faster transfer rates and higher efficiencies due to enhanced band offsets and interfacial coupling. The complementary insights gained from transient absorption and time-resolved photoluminescence measurements clarify the mechanisms governing interfacial carrier exchange and highlight the importance of both hole and electron transfer as key components in the functioning of such 0D–2D heterostructures. This study underscores the potential of 0D–2D semiconductor heterostructures for advanced optoelectronic and light-energy conversion applications.

In Situ Localized Polysulfide Injector for the Activation of Bulk Lithium Sulfide
The activation of commercial Li 2 S remains to be one of the key challenges against its commercialization as a starting cathode material for a sulfur-based Li-ion battery system. In this work we take advantage of the lower oxidation potential of commercial Na 2 S (1–3 wt%) to serve as an in situ and local polysulfide injector for the activation of commercial Li 2 S (70 wt%). Furthermore, in contrast to applying pre-solvated redox mediators, this technique allows for the activation of commercial Li 2 S at lower voltages with an electrolyte content as low as 3 μL mg –1 Li 2 S at 3 mgmg Li 2 S cm –2 and 4 μL mg –1 Li 2 S at 6.5 mg Li 2 S cm –2 without any other material modification.
Influence of Ligand Structure on Excited State Surface Chemistry of Lead Sulfide Quantum Dots
The ligand-nanocrystal boundaries of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) mediate the primary energy and electron transfer processes that underpin photochemical and photocatalytic transformations at their surfaces. We use mid-infrared transient absorption spectroscopy to reveal the influence that ligand structure and bonding to nanocrystal surfaces have on the changes of the excited state surface chemistry of this boundary in PbS QDs and the corresponding impact on charge transfer processes between nanocrystals. We demonstrate that oleate ligands undergo marked changes in their bonding to surfaces in the excitonic excited states of the nanocrystals, indicating that oleate passivated PbS surfaces undergo significant structural changes following photoexcitation. These changes can impact the surface mobility of the ligands and the ability of redox shuttles to approach the nanocrystal surfaces to undergo charge transfer in photocatalytic reactions. In contrast, markedly different transient vibrational features are observed in iodide/mercaptoproprionic acid passivated PbS QD films that result from charge transfer between neighboring nanocrystals and localization of holes at the nanocrystal surfaces near MPA ligands. This ability to distinguish the influence that excitonic excited states vs charge transfer processes have on the surface chemistry of the ligand-nanocrystal boundary lays the groundwork for exploration of how this boundary can be understood and controlled for the design of nanocrystalline materials tailored for specific applications in solar energy harvesting and photocatalytic reactions.
