Figure 2.

Calculated values for $\Delta \lambda$ (A and D), k_A (B and E), and f (C and F) as function of electric field for CdSe NRs (A–C) and type-II ZnSe-CdS heterostructure NRs (D–F). (Blue diamond) 2a = 4 nm; (orange downtriangle) 2a = 6 nm; (red uptriangle) 2a = 8 nm; (cyan circle) 2a = 10 nm; (green square) 2a = 12 nm. (Black symbols) Fields that the NRs (of different lengths) could experience by the maximal field of an AP (160 kV/cm). To see this figure in color, go online.
