Abstract
Triocytlphosphine (TOP)-capped CdSe nanoparticles (NPs) have been successfully prepared by the one-pot solution growth method at 240 °C under argon atmosphere. In particular, The TOP used in this process as the single coordinating solvent is favorable for probing capping mechanism of CdSe NPs surface. The growth process and characterization of CdSe NPs were determined by photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Results demonstrated the TOP-capped CdSe NPs to be well dispersed and uniform in shape and the diameter of the particle was confined within 8 nm. PL measurement showed the near band-edge luminescence of the final product.
