Abstract

The synthesis of strongly luminescing semiconductor nanocrystals reported is based on a wet-chemical approach. The use of aqueous solutions and the avoiding of dangerous and unstable precursors make this synthetic approach to be easily up-scaleable. The reaction yields are approaching gram amounts of the dried product and are limited solely by the laboratory facilities and thus may be further increased by using industrial equipments. The nanocrystals obtained by this route are strongly luminescing and suitable for various assembling procedures allowing the creation of core-shell spherical and thin-film composites, that are promising for photonic and optoelectronic applications. New assembly procedures allowing template-based formations of different types of metal-dielectric and porous metal nanostructures are presented.
