چکیده
A series of quantum dot (QD) ligands are reported that can make strong polyelectrolyte QD surfaces with sulfonates or quaternary ammoniums, which can endow QDs with excellent colloidal stability independent of the pH and ionic strength, minimal hydrodynamic size, and can be exploited to achieve stable and flexible bioconjugations and layer-by-layer assembly.

Polyelectrolyte-quantum dot multilayer films fabricated by combined layer-by-layer assembly and Langmuir-Schaefer deposition.
Stable multilayer thin films, assembled by a combination of layer-by-layer processing of polyelectrolytes and inorganic quantum dot monolayers prepared using the Langmuir-Schaefer deposition procedure, have been examined. Film formation and structure are confirmed using UV-vis absorption measurements and fluorescence spectroscopy. Growth is shown to be linear over several polyelectrolyte-quantu...
متن کاملProtein and Lactose Separation by Modified Ultrafiltration Membrane using Layer by Layer Technique
Layer-by-Layer (LbL) is a method which can be used for nanoscale coating and surface functionalization of a material. LbL technique mainly uses the electrostatic attracting between charged materials (polyelectrolytes, nanoparticles, etc.) and an oppositely charged surface. In this study, protein separation (BSA) from lactose solution was carried out using the LbL self-assembly method, which was...
متن کاملRestricted charge recombination process in PbS quantum dot sensitized solar cells by different coating cycles of ZnS films
The relatively low power conversion efficiency (PCE) of quantum dot sensitized solar cells (QDSSCs) is attributed to charge recombination at the interfaces. Charge recombination process could be suppressed by coating the QD layer with a wide band gap semiconductor such as ZnS, which acts as a blocking layer between the QDs and hole transport material (HTM). In present study, to improve PCE of P...

Nano-films consisting of an alternating sequence of positively and negatively charged polyelectrolyteshave been prepared by means of the electrostatic layer-by-layer sequential assembly technique on mildsteels. The mild steels were pretreated electrochemically to modify the mild steel surface. The modificationof the mild steel surface resulted in increasing the adhesion of the obtained nano-fil...
