Sonoelectrochemical synthesis of water-soluble CdTe quantum dots

A facile and fast one-pot method has been developed for the synthesis of CdTe quantum dots (QDs) in aqueous phase by a sonoelectrochemical route without the protection of N₂. The morphology, structure and composition of the as-prepared products were investigated by high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS). The influences of current intensity, current pulse width, and reaction temperature on the photoluminescence (PL) and quantum yield (QY) of the products were studied. The experimental results showed that the water-soluble CdTe QDs with high PL qualities can be conveniently synthesized without precursor preparation and N₂ protection, and the PL emission wavelength and QY can be effectively controlled by adjusting some parameters. This method can be expected to prepare other QDs as promising building blocks in solar cell, photocatalysis and sensors.     

Optical nonlinearity enhanced by metal nanoparticle in CdTe quantum dots

The optical nonlinearity of a CdTe quantum dot enhanced by a gold nanoparticle has been theoretically studied by employing the multi-bands effective mass method. The energy levels have been computed using 6×6 k.p model for the valence band. The semiconductor quantum dot-size-dependent third-order susceptibility of third harmonic generation in a CdTe-Au nanocrystal complex has been analyzed. It is found that the metal nanoparticle enhances the optical nonlinearity of the semiconductor quantum dot due to the dipole/multipole interaction that will bring in the strong damping and the field enhancement. By choosing the radius of CdTe quantum dot, the third-order nonlinear susceptibility for third harmonic generation can be optimized for the one- and multi-photon resonance. Also, we can alter the optical nonlinearity by changing the ratio of semiconductor-metal nanoparticle distance to the metal nanoparticle radius.     

New methodology for obtaining CdTe quantum dots by using ultrasound

Luminescent CdTe quantum dots (Qdots) have been produced at few minutes by using a new, simple and fast methodology in an aqueous medium by using ultrasound irradiation to accelerate the process of tellurium reduction. The structural and optical properties were characterized by TEM, XRD, absorption and fluorescence spectrocopy. The produced Qdots are in a strong quantum confinement regime and have only one fluorescence band. Moreover, the nanoparticles seem to be monodispersed, which is in accordance with the fluorescence results. We have developed a simple route for preparing monodispersed CdTe Qdots in an aqueous media. The use of ultrasound allows the morphology to be better controlled and the surfaces defects of Qdots to be reduced.     

Manifestation of CdTe quantum dots and interdiffusion in IR reflection spectra of CdTe/ZnTe structures with quantum dots

The IR reflection spectra of structures that consist of alternating layers of CdTe quantum dots and ZnTe barriers and are grown on ZnTe and CdTe/ZnTe buffer layers on GaAs(001) substrates are studied. The spectra are processed using dispersion analysis, and the parameters of the oscillators are determined. In the spectra, quantum dots manifest themselves in the form of a broad band at a frequency close to the frequency of the Fröhlich mode. It is revealed that the spectra contain features associated with the interdiffusion of the CdTe and ZnTe compounds, i.e., bands attributed to the local mode of Zn atoms in the CdTe compound and two gap modes of Cd atoms in the ZnTe compound.     

Study on the interaction of CdTe quantum dots with ferulic acid and protocatechuic aldehyde by optical spectroscopy

Luminescent CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized using thioglycolic acid (TGA) as a stabilizing agent in aqueous medium and were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In weak basic media the fluorescence of TGA-CdTe QDs was quenched notably by ferulic acid (FA) and protocatechuic aldehyde (PA), and the quenching values were proportional to the concentration of the quenchers in a certain range. The addition of bovine serum albumin (BSA) to TGA-CdTe QDs-FA and TGA-CdTe QDs-PA systems rendered a large recovery of the fluorescence of TGA-CdTe QDs.

Quantum confinement effects on the optical phonons of CdTe quantum dots

We present Raman-scattering results for CdTe nanocrystals in doped glasses which clearly show the confinement effects on the phonon spectra as a function of the quantum-dot size. We observed optical phonon modes, surface phonons and some of their overtone combinations. We show that the surface-phonon scattering intensity increases as the quantum-dot size decreases. Our results also show a decrease in the electron–phonon coupling as the nanocrystal size is decreased. These confinement effects are observed by changing the laser excitation energy, and thus by tuning to resonance with the optical transitions for quantum dots of different sizes within their broad size distribution in semiconductor-doped glasses.     

Refractive index of aqueous solution of CdTe quantum dots

The refractive index of aqueous solution of CdTe quantum dots is measured by the retroreflection method on the fiber-optic end face.

The data of refractive index we measured in this paper may be useful in photonics applications of aqueous solution of CdTe quantum dots.     

Determination of l-proline based on anodic electrochemiluminescence of CdTe quantum dots

A novel flow injection method for detection of l-proline was proposed in the presence of CdTe quantum dots (QDs). This method is based on the enhanced anodic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emission of CdTe QDs l-proline in aqueous system. CdTe QDs were modified with thioglycolic acid to obtain stable water-soluble QDs and intensive anodic ECL emission in Na₂CO₃–NaHCO₃ buffer solution at an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode, which was used for the sensitive detection of ECL enhancement using our homemade flow cell. Under the optimal conditions, the ECL intensity was correlated linearly with the concentration of l-proline over the range of 1.0×10^?8?1.0×10^?4 g mL^?1 (r=0.9996) and the detection limit was 5.0×10^?9 g mL^?1. The relative standard deviation was 1.12% for 6.0×10^?5 g mL^?1 l-proline (n=11). The possible mechanism was discussed. This method put forward a new efficient ECL methodology for enhancement-related determination of l-proline successfully.
