Alexey Ekimov or Aleksey Yekimov [1] ( Russian: Алексей Екимов; born 1945) is a Russian [2] solid state physicist and a pioneer in nanomaterials research. He discovered the semiconductor nanocrystals known as quantum dots in 1981, while working at the Vavilov State Optical Institute.
Aleksey Yekimov. The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2023. Born: 1945, Leningrad, USSR (now St. Petersburg, Russia) Affiliation at the time of the award: Nanocrystals Technology Inc., New York, NY, USA. Prize motivation: “for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots” Prize share: 1/3. Work.
Aleksey Yekimov’s first reaction to hearing the news of his 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was reasonable enough: “I woke up,” he says! In this call with the Nobel Prize’s Adam Smith, made not long afterwards, Yekimov goes on to discuss the experiments he performed over forty years ago producing quantum effects in coloured glass.
Alexei Ekimov (born 1945, U.S.S.R.) is a Soviet-born American physicist who was awarded the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his work in producing quantum dots, which are very small particles whose unusual quantum properties depend on their size.
Oct 4, 2023 · However, in the early 1980s, Aleksey Yekimov succeeded in creating size-dependent quantum effects in coloured glass. The colour came from nanoparticles of copper chloride and Yekimov demonstrated that the particle size affected the colour of the glass via quantum effects.
