چکیده

ZnO nanocrystals were successfully fabricated by wet-chemical method. Optical properties of excitons confined in ZnO nanocrystals were studied by measuring both optical absorption and photoluminescence spectra. Absorption due to free excitons was clearly observed whereas strong PL lines were recorded in the UV region at around the exciton absorption energy. Red-shift of optical features with increasing annealing time indicates an increase in quantum dot size. q 2005 Published by Elsevier Ltd. PACS: 61.41.Ce; 61.46.Cw; 61.82.Rx; 73.61.Tm; 82.70.Dd

Ion exchange growth of Zinc Sulfide quantum dots in aqueous solution

We report the growth by ion exchange synthesis of ZnS nanoparticles in MCM-41 matrices using Zn (CH3COO)2 and Na2S starting sources. The final product (ZnS/MCM-41) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), infrared spectrometry (IR) and UV-vis spectroscopy. Its crystalline st...
