Abstract

We fabricated semiconductor cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots via the pulsed laser ablation in the superfluid helium. The fabricated quantum dots showed blue-shifted fluorescence due to the strong quantum confinement effect. The fluorescence blinking phenomena were also observed indicating the single photon emission process. Our proposed scheme is a simple, robust, and reliable method to fabricate quantum dots and to introduce the highly fluorescence nanoparticles into superfluid helium appropriate for resonant optical manipulation and nano-tracers for liquid helium visualization.
