Studies on optical absorption and structural properties of Fe doped CdS quantum dots

Fe doped CdS quantum dots have been prepared using simple precursors by chemical precipitation technique. Fe doped CdS quantum dots have been synthesized by mixing cadmium nitrate, sodium sulfide and adding Fe under suitable conditions. X-ray diffraction analysis reveals that undoped and Fe doped CdS crystallizes in hexagonal structure. The lattice constants of Fe doped CdS nanoparticles decreased slightly with incorporation of Fe and no secondary phase was observed. The average grain size of the nanoparticles is found to lie in the range of 2.8–4.2 nm. HRTEM results show that undoped and 3.75% Fe doped CdS nanoparticles exhibit a uniform size distribution and average size of the nanoparticles is about 2–3 nm. Raman spectra show that 1LO and 2LO peaks of the Fe doped CdS samples are slightly red shifted compared with those of undoped CdS. Optical absorption spectra of Fe doped CdS nanoparticles exhibited red shift.

Use of ionic liquids in the synthesis of nanocrystals and nanorods of semiconducting metal chalcogenides

We have synthesized nanoparticles of hexagonal CdS in the diameter range 3-13 nm by the reaction of cadmium acetate dihydrate with thioacetamide in imidazolium [BMIM]-based ionic liquids. We have obtained three different particle sizes of CdS by changing the anion of the ionic liquid. Addition of trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) to the reaction mixture causes greater monodispersity as well as smaller particle size, while addition of ethylenediamine produces nanorods of 7 nm average diameter. Hexagonal ZnS and cubic PbS nanoparticles with average diameters of 3 and 10 nm, respectively, have been prepared by the reaction of the metal acetates with thioacetamide in [BMIM][BF4]. Hexagonal CdSe nanoparticles with an average diameter 12 nm were obtained by the reaction of cadmium acetate dihydrate with dimethylselenourea in [BMIM][BF4]. In this case also we observe the same effect of the addition of TOPO as in the case of CdS. Addition of ethylenediamine to the reaction mixture gives rise to nanorods. ZnSe nanowires with a cubic structures, possible diameters in the range 70-100 nm by the reaction of zinc acetate dihydrate with dimethylselenourea in [BMIM][MeSO4]. The nanostructures obtained are single crystalline in all the cases. Most of the nanostructures show characteristic UV/Vis absorption and photoluminescence emission spectra. The thermodynamically most stable structures are generally produced in the synthesis carried out in ionic liquids.     

Band-edge ultrafast pump-probe spectroscopy of core/shell CdSe/CdS rods: assessing electron delocalization by effective mass calculations

CdSe/CdS dot/rods nanocrystals show interesting physical properties related to the band-alignment at the hetero-interface, which controls the band-edge electron delocalization over the rods. Here the differential transmission spectra of CdSe/CdS nanorod samples with different core sizes have been measured using excitation resonant to the core transition. The photo bleaching ratio between dot and rod transitions increases with the dot size, indicating a trend towards electron localization. This trend has been further quantified by performing effective mass calculations in which the conduction band misalignment was varied in order to reproduce the observed bleaching feature ratio. The best agreement was found for negligible conduction band misalignment for small dots of around 2.3 nm in diameter, and about -0.1 eV misalignment was estimated for the larger dots, above 3.5 nm in diameter. This shows that the band misalignment might be dependent on the geometry of the system, and we argue that this might be related to different strain developed at the hetero-interface.     

ZnS/CdS/ZnS quantum dot quantum well produced in inverted micelles

A ZnS/CdS/ZnS quantum dot quantum well was prepared in AOT micelles successfully and was characterized by absorption spectroscopy and fluorescence spectroscopy. Luminescence in the region of 350-600 nm was observed. The complete ZnS shell might reduce the number of defects on the surface of the CdS well, which were assumed to act as centers for radiationless recombination, resulting in the luminescence enhancement.     

Analysis of the local atomic structure of quantum dots of the CdS family

The microwave synthesis of quantum dots based on CdS has been performed, the temperature (T 180°C and 150°C) and synthesis duration (10 min and 5 min) have been varied. The analysis of the peak broadening in X-ray diffraction has shown that the average particle size in the synthesized samples is 10.02 nm for the CdS _{T = 180°C} sample and 5.22 nm for the CdS _{T = 150°C} sample. For both synthesis temperatures particles of sphalerite phase are formed but the sample CdS _{T = 180°C} contained some impurity of wurtzite phase too. CdK-XANES spectra in the standard samples and quantum dots have been recorded using a Rigaku R-XAS X-ray absorption laboratory spectrometer. The theoretical analysis of the CdK-XANES spectra of bulk samples of CdS and CdS nanoparticles has been performed. It has been shown that the theoretical difference spectra between bulk CdS and CdS with decreased lattice parameters demonstrate the same tendency as the experimental difference spectra between bulk CdS and the quantum dot samples under study. It has been shown that the theoretical CdK-edge HERFD-XANES spectrum in CdS demonstrates considerably more detailed structure pointed to the need of the analysis of experimental CdK-edge HERFDXANES spectra to pick out more precise information on local atomic structure parameters of small semiconducting quantum dots.     

Synthesis and characterization of poly(acrylic acid) stabilized cadmium sulfide quantum dots

Cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles (NPs) capped with poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) were prepared in aqueous solutions from Cd(NO3)2 and Na2S. Influence of the COOH/Cd ratio (0.8-12.5), reaction pH (5.5 and 7.5), and PAA molecular weight (2100 and 5100 g/mol) on the particle size, colloidal stability, and photoluminescence were investigated. A Cd/S ratio of <1 causes ineffective passivization of the surface with the carboxylate and therefore results in a red shift of the absorption band and a significant drop in photoluminescence. Therefore, the Cd/S ratio was fixed at 1.1 for all experiments studying the mentioned variables. PAA coating provided excellent colloidal stability at a COOH/Cd ratio above 1. Absorption edges of PAA-coated CdS NPs are in the range of 460-508 nm. The size of the NPs increases slightly with increasing PAA molecular weight and COOH/Cd ratio at pH 7.5. It is demonstrated that there is a critical COOH/Cd ratio (1.5-2) that maximizes the photoluminescence intensity and quantum yield (QY, 17%). Above this critical ratio, which corresponds to smaller crystal sizes (3.7-4.1 nm) for each reaction set, the quantum yield decreases and the crystal size increases. Moreover, CdS NPs prepared at pH 7.5 have significantly higher QY and absorb at lower wavelengths in comparison with those prepared at pH 5.5. Luminescence quenching has not been observed over 8 months.     

Preparation and characterization of monodisperse CdS quantum dot‐polymer microspheres

A novel and effective method for the preparation of monodisperse CdS quantum dot‐polymer microspheres was proposed. The monodisperse hollow polymer microspheres were firstly swelled in chloroform. Then, the reaction precursor composed of CdO and sulfur, was impregnated into the hollow polymer microspheres. Subsequently, the CdS quantum dots were synthesized directly within the polymer microspheres by thermal decomposition. The morphology, structure, and fluorescence properties of CdS quantum dot‐polymer microspheres were studied by scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, fluorescence microscope, and flow cytometry. The results indicate that the fluorescent CdS quantum dots are successfully synthesized in the monodisperse hollow polymer microspeheres, which provide very strong fluorescence intensity, and offer excellent photostability due to the compact structure of the polymer matrix. These CdS quantum dot‐polymer microspheres have potential applications in biotechnology and biomedicine. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 48: 751–755, 2010
