Synthesis of aqueous CdS nano-crystals and rough fluorescence labeling of onion inner pellicle cell

A series of aqueous colloidal CdS nano-crystals were synthesized by using thioglycolic acid as a stabilizer and only controlling of preparation temperature,reaction time and pH value without adding any buffer solution.The color of emission varies from violet to red.The optical properties of as-prepared CdS quantum dots were studied by its fluorescence emission,excitation and UV-vis absorption spectra.The emission wavelength of these CdS quantum dots ranged from 370 nm to 600 nm,its excitation wavelength could range from 200 nm to 420 nm,and its photolumine-scence(PL) full width of half-maximum was about 100 nm,the PL quantum yield was up to 8% compared to rhoda-mine 6 G.Experimental results showed that both pH value and preparation temperature have impact on resultant emission wavelength,reaction time could affect resultant PL intensity.The diameter of cubic CdS was about 1 nm,supported by the characteristic X-ray diffraction(XRD).With the help of fluorescence microscope,the aggregation of CdS and their emission fluorescence around the membrane of onion inner pellicle cell were observed,indicated that the cell membrane was labeled by the nano-crystals.
