Which transport mechanism increases when quantum dots are closely packed?

💡 Explanation

Closely spaced quantum dots enhance dipole-dipole interactions, increasing Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) because the rate’s inverse sixth-power dependence on distance favors higher transfer rates; therefore, FRET increases rapidly with proximity, rather than other scattering effects.
