The quantum confinement effect and photoenhancement of photoluminescence (PL) of lead sulphide (PbS) quantum dots (QDs) and lead sulphide/manganese sulphide (PbS/MnS) core shell QDs capped with thiol ligands in aqueous solution were investigated. From PL results, the presence of MnS shells gives a strong confinement effect which translates to higher emission energy in PbS/MnS core shell QDs. Increasing MnS shell thickness from 0.3 to 1.5 monolayers (ML) causes a blueshift of PL peak energies as the charge carriers concentrated in the PbS core region. Enhancement of the PL intensity of colloidal PbS and PbS/MnS core shell QDs has been observed when the samples are illuminated above the band gap energy, under continuous irradiation for 40 min. Luminescence from PbS QDs and PbS/MnS core shell QDs can be strongly influenced by the interaction of water molecules and oxygen present in aqueous solution adsorbed on the QD surface. However, PbS/MnS core shell QDs with a shell thickness of 1.5 ML did not show a PL peak energy stability as it was redshifted after 25 min, probably due to wider size distribution of the QDs.

Abstract Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) were synthesized by coffee-grounds as carbon source under hydrothermal carbonization treatment for the first time. The obtained CQDs showed a strong emission at the wavelength of 460 nm, with an optimum excitation of 370 nm, and enrichment of the surface functional groups(-OH, -NH2). Sodium cyclamate in an aqueous solution and the CQDs could form a core-shell structure by hydrogen-bonding and van der waals bonding to enhance the fluorescent emission. Cyclohexyl sulfamate forms cyclohexyl sulfamate in an aqueous solution and then undergoes dehydration and condensation with the hydroxyl groups on the carbon quantum dots, and finally sodium cyclamate forms a core-shell structure around the carbon quantum dots.环己基氨基磺酸盐在水溶液中形成环己基氨基磺酸盐,然后与碳量子点上的羟基进行脱水和缩合,最后环甜酸钠在碳量子点周围形成核-壳结构。Cyclohexyl sulfamate form a cyclohexyl sulfamic acid in an aqueous solution followed by dehydration condensation with hydroxyl groups on the carbon quantum dots, cyclamate final core-shell structure is formed in the peripheral carbon quantum dot,

AbstractThe effect of different organic charge transporting materials on the photoluminescence of CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots has been studied by means of steady-state and time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy. With an increase in concentration of the organic charge transporting material in the quantum dots solutions, the photoluminescence intensity of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots was quenched greatly and the fluorescence lifetime was shortened gradually. The quenching efficiency of CdSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots decreased with increasing the oxidation potential of organic charge transporting materials. Based on the analysis, two pathways in the photoluminescence quenching process have been defined: static quenching and dynamic quenching. The dynamic quenching is correlated with hole transporting from quantum dots to the charge transporting materials.

CdTe/CdS/ZnS core-shell-shell (CSS) quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized in aqueous solution via water-bathing combined hydrothermal method using L-cysteine (L-Cys) as a stabilizer. This method possesses both the advantages of water-bathing and hydrothermal methods, and thus can prepare CSS QDs with markedly reduced synthesis time than previously reported methods. The as-prepared QDs display a higher fluorescent intensity than bare CdTe or CdTe/CdS. After co-cultured with yeast at different growth phase, the as-prepared L-Cys capped CdTe/CdS/ZnS QDs showed much less toxicity than the other CdTe or CdTe/CdS QDs. Our results demonstrate that the CSS QD would have a promising potential in fields of bio-labeling and cell imaging.
