Ligand Controlled Growth of Aqueous II-VI Semiconductor Nanoparticles and Their Self-Assembly
Colloidal semiconductor nanoparticles (NPs) contain hundreds to thousands of atoms in a roughly spherical shape with diameters in the range of 1-10 nm. The extremely small particle size confines electron transitions and creates size tunable bandgaps, giving rise to the name quantum dots (QDs). The u...
