Abstract:
CdSe quatum dots (QDs) have been prepared through the one-pot process. Ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis) absorption and emission spectra were used to characterize the resulting samples. The effect of the synthesis time and temperature on the optical properties of the CdSe QDs samples have been studied. The maximum of the absorption spectra of the CdSe QDs samples is 486 nm and the emission spectra is 528 nm. The emission intensity of the CdSe QDs samples increases, and the emission maximum presents a red shift with increasing reaction time.

Photoluminescence offers a wide range of applications due to its inherent sensitivity and selectivity. This technique allows for both direct and indirect analyses of the analyte. Direct quantitative analysis is possible when the analyte exhibits a favorable quantum yield for fluorescence or phosphorescence. However, an indirect analysis may be feasible if the analyte is not fluorescent or phosphorescent, or if the quantum yield is unfavorable. Indirect methods include reacting the analyte with...

Photoluminescence is a process where a molecule absorbs light energy and re-emits it in the form of light. This phenomenon occurs when a substance absorbs photons, promoting its electrons to higher energy level excited states, followed by a relaxation process in which the electrons return to their original ground state energy levels and emit light. Photoluminescence is widely observed in various materials, including semiconductors, and organic and inorganic compounds.
