Abstract:
A method for fabricating colloidal CdSe nanocrystals at low reaction temperatures was developed. The transition from CdSe clusters to continuously-growing nanocrystals was found to be crucial in the formation of high-quality quantum dots with narrow size distribution and efficient, tunable optical properties.
