The excited state dynamics of core-shell type semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) of various sizes in close contact with a plasmonically active silver thin film has been demonstrated by using picosecond resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. The non-radiative energy transfer from the QDs to the metal surface is found to be of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) type rather than the widely expected nano-surface energy transfer (NSET) type. The slower rate of energy transfer processes compared to that of the electron transfer from the excited QDs to an organic molecule benzoquinone reveals an insignificant possibility of charge migration from the QDs to the metallic film.
