报告题目：Synthesis, Characterization and Applications of Multi-component Nanostructures

Abstract
Multi-component nanoparticles that contain two or more components have attracted much attention recently due to their multi-functionality and the synergistic properties induced by interactions between the different components. The syntheses are based on growth of a second and/or third component onto seed nanoparticles using methods including colloidal atomic layer deposition, surface functionalization and heterogeneous nucleation. Three applications of the multi-component nanoparticles will be discussed: 1. AC field heating of heterostructured nanoparticles with one of the component being magnetic, with applications in remote control of cell signaling; 2. Tuning of carrier-dopant exchange interactions by wave function engineering in the core-multishell manganese doped quantum wells for spintronics; and 3. Tunable emission from CdS/CdSe/CdS colloidal quantum well/ring hetereostructures.

Biography
Dr. Savas Delikanli received his Ph.D. degree in Physics from State University of New York at Buffalo in 2011. In his PhD work, he investigated doping of II-VI and IV-VI colloidal QDs, and carrier spin dynamics within them. He continued his research as a postdoctoral researcher at SUNY at Buffalo until 2013. After that, he spent two years as a postdoctoral researcher at National Nanotechnology Research Center (UNAM) at Bilkent University. Dr. Delikanli has been a Postdoc at Nanyang Technological University since 2016. His research mainly focuses on synthesis of II-VI and IV-VI colloidal quantum dots, nanoplatelets, heterostructures, magnetically doped nanostructures and magnetic nanoparticles; optical, magnetic and magneto-optical characterization of nanostructures;  and implementation as lasers and LEDs.
