Porous CdSe nanorods having a novel flute-like morphology have been prepared facilely via the hydrothermal treatment of CdSe·(en)0.5 (en = ethylenediamine) nanorods as sacrificial templates. During the hydrothermal process, various crystalline imperfections such as stacking faults and twinning planes appear due to lattice mismatches between orthorhombic CdSe·(en)0.5 and hexagonal wurtzite porou...

We report our results on the influence of the dipole moment of small molecules anchored to the surface of CdSe nanocrystals, over the interfacial charge recombination dynamics in CdSe/P3HT (P3HT : poly-3-hexylthiophene). The polarizability of the CdSe/P3HT interface is key to achieving efficient charge separation and slow back electron transfer, two of the most important processes to boost the ...

In this research, we prepared composite films via covalent coupling of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) to graphene through the direct binding of aryl radicals to the graphene surface. To compare the carrier transport with the CdSe aryl binding graphene film, we prepared CdSe pyridine capping graphene films through the pi-pi interactions of noncovalent bonds between the graphene and pyridine molecules. ...

This paper describes synthesis and optical properties of planar clusters of CdSe nanocrystals. The clusters emit linearly polarized light in the plane of the cluster. The emission wavelength of the clusters can be adjusted between 568 and 639 nm with the size of the CdSe nanocrystals. Planar CdSe microclusters were synthesized by reaction of trioctylphosphine oxide-coated CdSe/CdS nanocrystals ...

CdSe quantum dots are often used in industry as fluorescent materials. In this study, CdSe quantum dots were synthesized using Fusarium oxysporum. The cadmium and selenium concentration, pH, and temperature for the culture of F. oxysporum (Fusarium oxysporum) were optimized for the synthesis, and the CdSe quantum dots obtained from the mycelial cells of F. oxysporum were observed by transmissio...
