Synthesis and Bio-Imaging Application of Highly Luminescent Mercaptosuccinic Acid-Coated CdTe Nanocrystals
Here we present a facile one-pot method to prepare high-quality CdTe nanocrystals in aqueous phase. In contrast to the use of oxygen-sensitive NaHTe or H(2)Te as Te source in the current synthetic methods, we employ more stable sodium tellurite as the Te source for preparing highly luminescent CdTe nanocrystals in aqueous solution. By selecting mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA) as capping agent and p...
متن کاملRare Earth Ion-Doped Upconversion Nanocrystals: Synthesis and Surface Modification
The unique luminescent properties exhibited by rare earth ion-doped upconversion nanocrystals (UCNPs), such as long lifetime, narrow emission line, high color purity, and high resistance to photobleaching, have made them widely used in many areas, including but not limited to high-resolution displays, new-generation information technology, optical communication, bioimaging, and therapy. However...

This work focuses on studying a novel polymer/nanocrystal multilayer for the fabrication of donor and accepter typed photovoltaic device. Highly luminescent anionic CdTe nanocrystals were prepared by aqueous synthesis method using 3-mercaptopropionic acid as stabilizer. The resultant CdTe served as electron acceptor and poly(p-phenylene vinylene) (PPV) was used as electron donor. Through the el...
متن کاملHydrothermal synthesis of zinc oxide nanostructures
Semiconductors with dimensions in the nanometer realm are important because their electrical, optical and chemical properties can be tuned by changing the size of the particles. These nanostructures have attracted much interest due to their fundamental importance in bridging the gap between bulk matter and molecular species [199, 200]. Optical properties of nanoparticles are of great interest f...
