Electrically Controlled Dual-Color Light Emission from Coupled Quantum Dot Molecules

Caption

A nanoparticle made of two coupled quantum dots, each emitting light with distinct colors. applying an external voltage induces an electric field which can toggle the light emission from one side to the other, switching the emission color while keeping the overall light intensity.
