Effect of chemical composition on luminescence of thiol-stabilized CdTe nanocrystals

<p>Abstract</p><p>Judicious selection of the amount of surfactant during synthesis enables a drastic increase in the photoluminescence efficiency of aqueous CdTe nanocrystals (NCs) stabilized by thioglycolic acid (TGA). Elemental determination of the NCs was undertaken to identify...
