Structural Characteristics of Cadmium Telluride Quantum Dots with Organic Stabilizing Agent

Abstract

In this work, cadmium telluride nanoparticles were synthesized by the aqueous solution method using organic stabilizing agent during preparation procedure. The optical, photoluminescence and structural characteristics of the synthesized quantum dots based on the prepared cadmium telluride nanoparticles were determined and studied. These quantum dots can be successfully used to improve the performance of photonics and optoelectronic devices, mainly photodetectors and solar cells.
