چکیده

Mn-doped ZnS nanorods synthesized by solvothermal method were successfully coated with ZnS shells of various thicknesses. The powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements showed the ZnS:Mn nanorods were wurtzite structure with preferential orientation along c-axis. Transmission electron microscopy images (TEM) revealed that the ZnS shells formed from small particles, growing along a-axis orientation, which was proved by the XRD measurements. Room temperature photoluminescence (PL) spectra showed that the intensity of Mn emission first increased and then decreased with the thickening of the ZnS shells. The effects of ZnS shells on the luminescence properties of ZnS:Mn nanorods is discussed.

Optimizing the synthesis of CdS/ZnS core/shell semiconductor nanocrystals for bioimaging applications

In this study, we report on CdS/ZnS nanocrystals as a luminescence probe for bioimaging applications. CdS nanocrystals capped with a ZnS shell had enhanced luminescence intensity, stronger stability and exhibited a longer lifetime compared to uncapped CdS. The CdS/ZnS nanocrystals were stabilized in Pluronic F127 block copolymer micelles, offering an optically and colloidally stable contrast ag...
