Abstract
The effects of heat treatment using an electronic furnace on the morphology of thin-film CdTe quantum dots (QDs) grown on glass substrates was investigated. The photoluminescence properties of CdTe QDs were found to depend on the size of QDs; photoemission was found to deteriorate, and sometimes, get completely lost with the change in QD size. Generally during the synthesis, QD size can be controlled by controlling the reflux time. However, since reflux temperature could not be increased beyond 100°C, we focused on heat treatment after synthesis. Therefore, the properties of fabricated QD solutions could be changed with additional heat treatment.
