Fabrication and spectroscopic studies on highly luminescent CdSe/CdS nanorod polymer composites
نویسندگان
چکیده
Highly luminescent nanocomposites were prepared by incorporating CdSe/CdS core/shell nanorods into different polymer matrices. The resulting nanocomposites show high transparency of up to 93%. A photoluminescence quantum efficiency of 70% was obtained, with an optimum combination of nanorod (0.05 wt %) and at a UV-initiator concentration of 0.1 wt % for poly(lauryl methacrylate). Nanorods tend to agglomerate in cellulose triacetate.

Catalyst-assisted solution-liquid-solid synthesis of CdS/CdSe nanorod heterostructures.
We report the synthesis and characterization of axial nanorod heterostructures composed of cadmium selenide (CdSe) and cadmium sulfide (CdS). The synthesis employs a solution-liquid-solid (SLS) mechanism with the assistance of bismuth nanocrystals adhered to a substrate (silicon or a III-V semiconductor). Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and diffraction studies show that CdSe and CdS segm...
متن کاملMicrostructure and Optical Properties of Composites Consisting of Nanoporous Stretched Polypropylene doped with Liquid Crystals and Quantum Dots at a High Concentration
Unique properties of nanohybrid composites based on different types of porous polymer matrices doped with fluorescent nanoparticles (quantum dots, QDs) are determined by the combination of the mechanical properties of the host matrix (flexibility, chemical stability, etc.) and a high luminescence intensity and extreme stability of QDs. Here, we report on the preparation, optical and microstruct...

We report the synthesis and characterization of CdSe/CdS core-shell quantum dots (CdSe/CdS-QDs) that exhibit absorption in the UV range of the solar spectrum and emit photons with wavelengths centered around 625 nm, a wavelength that is well suited for silicon absorption and electron-hole pair generation. We also report the fabrication and characterization of single crystal silicon (c-Si) solar...
متن کاملImproved photoluminescence quantum yield and stability of CdSe-TOP, CdSe-ODA-TOPO, CdSe/CdS and CdSe/EP nanocomposites
Size-controllablemonodisperse CdSe nanocrystals with different organic cappingwere prepared based on the hot-injectionmethod. The effective separation of nucleation and growthwas achieved by rapidlymixing two highly reactive precursors. As a contrast, we preparedCdSe/CdS nanocrystals (NCs) successfully based on the selective ion layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) technique. This inorganic ca...
متن کاملType-II core/shell CdS/ZnSe nanocrystals: synthesis, electronic structures, and spectroscopic properties.
We report a two-step synthesis of highly luminescent CdS/ZnSe core/shell nanocrystals (emission quantum yields up to 50%) that can produce efficient spatial separation of electrons and holes between the core and the shell (type-II localization regime). Our synthesis involves fabrication of cubic-singony CdS core particles that are subsequently overcoated with a layer of ZnSe in the presence of ...
