Pan, Yi; Li, Yue Ru; Zhao, Yu; Akins, Daniel L. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2015
A research project for senior undergraduates of chemistry has been developed to introduce syntheses of a series of monodispersed semiconductor PbS quantum dots (QDs) and their characterization methodologies. In this paper, we report the preparation of monodispersed semiconductor PbS QDs with sizes smaller than the exciton Bohr radius using a…
