Brus equation emission energy Δ"E" = "hc"/λ, where c is the speed of light). This is useful for calculating the radius of a quantum dot from experimentally determined parameters. The overall equation is "E", "m"*, and "m"* are unique for each nanocrystal composition. For example, with CdSe nanocrystals: Brus equation The Brus equation can be used to describe the emission energy of quantum dot semiconductor nanocrystals (such as CdSe nanocrystals) in terms of the band gap energy "E", Planck's constant "h", the radius of the quantum dot "r", as well as the effective mass of the excited electron "m"* and of the
Yukawa–Tsuno equation Yukawa–Tsuno equation The Yukawa-Tsuno Equation, first developed in 1959, is a linear free-energy relationship in physical organic chemistry. It is a modified version of the Hammett equation that accounts for enhanced resonance effects in electrophilic reactions of para- and meta-substituted organic compounds. This equation does so by introducing a new term to the original Hammett relation that provides a measure of the extent of resonance stabilization for a reactive structure that builds up charge (positive or negative) in its transition state. The Yukawa-Tsuno Equation can take the following forms: where and represent the rate constants for an X-substituted and unsubstituted
