Direct probe of spectral inhomogeneity reveals synthetic tunability of single-nanocrystal spectral linewidths

The spectral linewidth of an ensemble of fluorescent emitters is dictated by the combination of single-emitter linewidths and sample inhomogeneity. For semiconductor nanocrystals, efforts to tune ensemble linewidths for optical applications have focused primarily on eliminating sample inhomogeneitie...
