  • Title: White-light emission from magic-sized cadmium selenide nanocrystals.
    Author: Bowers MJ, McBride JR, Rosenthal SJ.
    Journal: J Am Chem Soc; 2005 Nov 09; 127(44):15378-9. PubMed ID: 16262395.
    Abstract:
    Magic-sized cadmium selenide (CdSe) nanocrystals have been pyrolytically synthesized. These ultra-small nanocrystals exhibit broadband emission (420-710 nm) that covers most of the visible spectrum while not suffering from self absorption. This behavior is a direct result of the extremely narrow size distribution and unusually large Stokes shift (40-50 nm). The intrinsic properties of these ultra-small nanocrystals make them an ideal material for applications in solid state lighting and also the perfect platform to study the molecule-to-nanocrystal transition.
