Synthesis and study of some properties of colloidal quantum dots of indium antimonide

Authors: Tsvetkova O. Y., Shtykov S. N., Zhukov D. N., Smirnova T. D.

Colloidal quantum dots of indium antimonide have been synthesized by a known technique. The shape and average diameters of quantum dots have been investigated by transmission electron microscopy using a transmission microscope. Controlling the size and shape of colloidal QDs provides information on the formation of the crystal structure of nanoparticles and their possible physical and optical properties. It has been found that InSb quantum dots are characterized by a polygonal shape.

Effect of sulfur solvent on the properties of lead sulfide quantum dots

Authors: Tsvetkova O. Y., Shtykov S. N., Smirnova T. D., Zhukov D. N.

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) of lead sulfide have been synthesized and investigated using octadecene and white spirit as a solvent for sulfur, varying the concentration of precursors and the temperature of the process. A method has been proposed for the synthesis of these QDs using anhydrous white spirit as a solvent at a temperature of 200° C, which made it possible to obtain polygonal nanoparticles with an average diameter of 2 to 3.2 nm with a minimum spread in size (± 10%).

The Studying of Components Ratio Influence in Mixed Monolayers of Quantum Dots and Arac hidic Acid on the Films Morphology Based on Them

Authors: Gorbachev I. A., Glukhovskoy E. G.

The formation process of quantum dots stabilized by the trioctylphosphine oxide and arachidic acid molecules mixed monolayers was studied. An equation that determines a dependence of numbers of organic matrix molecules that separates quantum dots on e from each other in the close-packing Langmuir monolayer from quantum dots size was proposed. An existence of minimal numbers of organic matrix molecules for changing and tuning a distance between quantu m dots in the Langmuir monolayer was shown.
