Tunneling and Chemical Reactions It is possible to see tunneling in many chemical reactions. This involves fast reaction rates and isotopic effects that cannot be explained in a classical way. Also reactants can be excited an state which may tunnel to the products.
Quantum dots and wells Quantum dots 2 nm CdSe emitts green 5 nm CdSe emitts red The larger the diameter the longer the emission wavelength. Why?
