None:
Hydrophobic ligand-modification of CdSe QDs allows facile encapsulation of the QDs into SDS micelles, creating a hydrophobic, CO2-enriched microreactor for QDs enabling efficient, highly selective CO2-to-CO photoconversion of 2.47 mmol g-1 and up to 91.5% selectivity, in aqueous solution, outperforming pristine MPA-CdSe and MUA-CdSe.
