Abstract

A new synthetic method is presented that allows the preparation of highly monodisperse CdSe nanorods (so called quantum rods) at relatively low temperatures (160 degrees C). This method is characterized by a high aspect ratio of the particles and affords good reproducibility. The morphology of the resulting nanorods was examined by means of transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and the electro-optic properties by means of fluorescence spectroscopy. The conditions of the reaction of nanoparticle growth were examined by varying the concentration of the organometallic precursors, the growth temperature, and the growth time. The experimental findings correspond well with previously published semiempirical pseudo-potential calculations.
