Abstract

Spatial confinement of excitons in the nano-crystalline region of semiconducting nanostructures differ significantly from the optoelectronic properties exhibited by the bulk material. We report spike-like absorption observed in the UV spectrum of a phenylalanine hexamer peptide [(Ff)3-OH] nano-assembly, which may be attributed to the spatial confinement of electrons to the dimension of quantum dots. Interdependency of the UV and PLE spectrum of the peptide confirms the existence of quantum confinement in (Ff)3-OH nano-assemblies.
