coated CdTe quantum dots (QDs) in several particle sizes having red and blue
colors were stabilized in solid phase by a water dispersible polymer (wdp).
Absorption and fluorescence spectra showed that the as-prepared CdTe QDs had
good photoluminescence property. A kind of self-assembly aggregation of the
prepared CdTe-wdp nanoparticles was observed as the first time in solid phase.
The QDs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR),
Atomic force microscopy (AFM), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Energy
Dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), Steady state fluorescence spectroscopy and
fluorescent imaging using BAB Image Analysis System®, Transmission-electron
microscopy (TEM) and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD). </span> <br /> </p>}, number={2}, publisher={KCST Founding Board}
