Abstract

The theoretical basis for nonlinearities in semiconductor and silver quantum dots is outlined. The connection between calculated and measured energies of the quantum levels of CdS in glasses is given. Enhancement of optical spectra of organic dyes is a result of an interaction with silver particles. Applications of glasses doped by quantum dots of CdS or silver particles with organic dyes for photonics and for luminescent solar collectors (LSC) are suggested.
