Abstract
Highly dispersed ZnO quantum dots (QDs) in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) nanotubes have been prepared by a single capillary electrospinning. The structure and optical properties characterizations were performed by x-ray diffraction, scanning and transmission electron microscopy, absorption, photoluminescence, and resonant Raman spectra. In the composites, PVP molecules passivate the surface defects of ZnO QDs and prevent the aggregations of ZnO QDs. As a result, the composites exhibit narrower band edge emissions and less laser thermal effects. Blueshifted band gap, enlarged exciton energy, and less exciton-longitudinal optical (LO) phonon interaction due to the quantum confinement effect have also been observed.
