Photoluminescent silicon nanocrystals with chlorosilane surfaces--synthesis and reactivity.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a new efficient two-step method to covalently functionalize hydride terminated silicon nanocrystals with nucleophiles. First a reactive chlorosilane layer was formed via diazonium salt initiated hydrosilylation of chlorodimethyl(vinyl)silane which was then reacted with alcohols, silanols and organolithium reagents. With organolithium compounds a side reaction is observed in which a direct functionalization of the silicon surface takes place.

Efficient one-pot synthesis of highly photoluminescent alkyl-functionalised silicon nanocrystals.
The chemical reduction of micelles formed by mixing silicon tetrachloride and hexyltrichlorosilane in apolar solvent, where hexyltrichlorosilane serves as both reactant and surfactant, yields brightly luminescent silicon nanocrystals, and enables efficient synthesis of alkyl-functionalised silicon quantum dots (SiQDs) in a single step.
متن کاملUltra-small photoluminescent silicon-carbide nanocrystals by atmospheric-pressure plasmas.
Highly size-controllable synthesis of free-standing perfectly crystalline silicon carbide nanocrystals has been achieved for the first time through a plasma-based bottom-up process. This low-cost, scalable, ligand-free atmospheric pressure technique allows fabrication of ultra-small (down to 1.5 nm) nanocrystals with very low level of surface contamination, leading to fundamental insights into ...
متن کاملHighly photoluminescent silicon nanocrystals for rapid, label-free and recyclable detection of mercuric ions.
Hydrothermal treatment of 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane (APTMS) in the presence of sodium citrate generates a suspension of highly fluorescent silicon nanocrystals that fluoresces blue under UV irradiation. The photoluminescent quantum yield of the as-prepared silicon nanocrystals was calculated to be 21.6%, with quinine sulfate as the standard reference. Only mercuric ions (Hg(2+)) can readily...
متن کاملPropionic-Acid-Terminated Silicon Nanoparticles: Synthesis and Optical Characterization
Photoinitiated hydrosilylation was used to attach acrylic acid to the surface of photoluminescent silicon nanoparticles, thereby producing water-dispersible, propionic-acid-terminated particles. From transmission electron microscope (TEM) observations, the average diameters of the synthesized nanocrystals were 1.9-2.4 nm. It is likely that smaller particles (<1.5 nm) were also present but could...
متن کاملThe mechanism of photohydrosilylation on silicon and porous silicon surfaces.
Visible or UV light activates H-terminated Si surfaces because of the presence of a photogenerated hole in a Si-Si back-bond. Enhancing the lifetime of this hole at the surface increases reactivity. On the basis of photodynamics and electron transfer theory, the prevalence of two mechanisms of photoactivation (internal photoemission versus interband photoexcitation followed by electron transfer...
