Cadmium Selenide Synthesis, Characterization and Modeling
Teaching Materials | 22 Oct 2021 | Contributor(s):: Shelby Hatch, Evan R. Trivedi, Baudilio Tejerina, George C. Schatz
This is a combined experiment/computational lab in which cadmium selenide quantum dot nanoparticles are synthesized, their spectra are studied, and the results are modeling using the CNDO/INDO semiempirical electronic structure code. Synthesis and Size Dependent Properties of CdSe Quantum...

Synthesis and Characterization of CdSe Qunatum Dots
Teaching Materials | 11 Jan 2017 | Contributor(s):: Nicholas Blake, NNCI Nano
In this laboratory, students will study how surfactant-based chemistry can be used to synthesize CdSe quantum dots and study how the size of the quantum dots can be controlled by varying reaction time. The laboratory will demonstrate how the color of these quantum dots can be connected to...

Ultra-stable nanoparticles of (CdSe)n and their unique properties
Online Presentations | 02 Aug 2012 | Contributor(s):: Atsuo Kasuya
Nanoparticles exhibit unique materials functions not realizable in the bulk solid, leading useful practical applications. Recent progresses in synthesis show possibility of producing them down to 1 nm comparable to molecular sizes in different geometrical structures. In such nano-structures, the...
