Influence of the Type of Solvent and the Nanorods Concentration on the Optical Properties of CdSe Nanoparticles


Abstract in English

Monodispersed CdSe Nanorods nanoprticles with sufficient luminescence intensity have been prepared by chemical method in solution phase. CdSe as a core covered by Olic acide as an organic capping agent. The nanodots size obtained by two methods: directly from high resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and using absorption peaks comparison with literature, the two methods are in good agreement. The optical properties and the luminescence intensity as a function of CdSe NRs concentration and the type of solvent (Chloroform and Toluene) have been investigated. The intensity of photoluminescence peak decreases and the peak shifts toward the blue energy side as the concentration reduced. The results show the relation between the polarity, the effect of surface, concentration, and the quantum effect on the optical properties.
