Evidence of giant oscillator strength in the exciton dephasing of CdSe   nanoplatelets measured by resonant four-wave mixing
  We measured the intrinsic ground-state exciton dephasing and population dynamics in colloidal quasi two-dimensional (2D) CdSe nanoplatelets at low temperature (5-50K) using transient resonant four-wave mixing in heterodyne detection. Our results indicate that below 20K the exciton dephasing is lifetime limited, with the exciton population lifetime being as fast as 1ps. This is consistent with an exciton lifetime given by a fast radiative decay due to the large in-plane coherence area of the exciton center-of-mass motion in these quasi 2D systems compared to spherical nanocrystals.
