Abstract

High‐quality colloidal photoluminescent CdS quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized in non‐coordinating solvent octadecene (ODE) using oleic acid (OA) as capping molecule, and characterized by powered x‐ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscope (TEM), UV‐Vis absorption spectra, photoluminescence (PL) emission spectroscopy and time‐resolved emission spectroscopy. The effects of the growth time, the molar ratio of OA/Cd and Cd/S on the PL intensity from surface‐state have been investigated. We found that the surface‐state emission could be easily controlled by tuning the growth time and the molar ratio of Cd/S.
