Who identified Brus Equation?

It was first identified by Alexey Ekimov and Alexander Efros while studying quantum dots for the first time in the 1980s. The equation was named after Louis E. Brus who independently discovered it a few years later.

How to Calculate Brus Equation?

Brus Equation calculator uses Emission Energy of Quantum Dot = Band Gap Energy+(([hP]^2)/(8*(Radius of Quantum Dot^2)))*((1/([Mass-e]*Effective Mass of Electron))+(1/([Mass-e]*Effective Mass of Hole))) to calculate the Emission Energy of Quantum Dot, The Brus Equation formula is defined as the emission energy of quantum dot semiconductor nanocrystals (such as CdSe nanocrystals). This is useful for calculating the radius of a quantum dot from experimentally determined parameters. Emission Energy of Quantum Dot is denoted by E_emission symbol.
