  • Title: Hybrid approach to the synthesis of highly luminescent CdTe/ZnS and CdHgTe/ZnS nanocrystals.
    Author: Tsay JM, Pflughoefft M, Bentolila LA, Weiss S.
    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2004 Feb 25; 126(7):1926-7. PubMed ID: 14971912.
    Abstract:
    We report the synthesis of highly luminescent CdTe/ZnS and CdHgTe/ZnS core/shell semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). A hybrid of two synthesis routes leads to novel nanocrystal compositions and small core/shell sizes (4-5 nm) that emit in the far-red and near-infrared regions. These particles exhibit higher resistance to oxidation and photobleaching, have high quantum yields, and could be used for biological labeling and imaging.
