Abstract

White light generation is achieved by single-step co-doping of copper and manganese into the robust ZnSe quantum dots (QDs) which were synthesised using a wet chemical route. Photoluminescence (PL) emission spectra revealed three peaks related to blue (ZnSe), green (copper related) and orange (manganese related). The PL spectra indicated no surface and/or trap state related emission. Photoluminescence excitation (PLE) measurements confirmed co-doping of copper and manganese in the same QD. PLE spectra recorded with emission wavelength fixed at copper and manganese showed a band edge at the same position, indicating the incorporation of both copper and manganese in the same QD. Time-resolved PL measurements suggest an atomic like nature of Mn and Cu in ZnSe QDs.
