Figure 3: Characterization of the nanocomposite films.

(a) Atomic force microscopy images of nanocomposite films doped with various amounts of core/shell nanocrystals. (b) Surface roughness of the nanocomposite films with respect to the doping concentration. (c) X-ray diffraction patterns of the nanocomposite films with various concentrations of core/shell nanocrystals in the polymer matrix. Scale bars, 500 nm (a).
