Main Methods:

  • Utilized the reverse microemulsion method for nanoparticle synthesis.
  • Synthesized water-soluble CdTe/CdS core/shell QDs using 3-mercaptopropionic acid and thiourea.
  • Formed the silica shell via hydrolysis of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) in a cyclohexane solution.

Main Results:

  • Successfully prepared CdTe/CdS/SiO2 core/multishell fluorescent nanoparticles with a diameter of approximately 64 nm.
  • Achieved a maximum emission wavelength of 678 nm, indicating red-shifted fluorescence.
  • Demonstrated that the silica layer imparts chemical inertness and stability in harsh environments.

Conclusions:

  • The developed silica-coated CdTe/CdS nanoparticles are stable and exhibit useful fluorescent properties.
