Abstract

In this paper we present photoluminescence measurements of CdSe nanoparticles embedded in transparent glass. Sample is prepared using an original technique, which combines both heat treatment and ultraviolet laser irradiation. Photoluminescence spectra displayed one main emission band at 2.14 eV. We identify this bands energy as basic interband transition in CdSe nanoparticle. We calculated energy of basic (1sh–1se) transition in spherical CdSe quantum dot (QD), within infinite potential barrier, in effective-mass approximation. On the basis of this model, average radius of synthesized CdSe QDs is about 3 nm, which is in consistence with AFM measurements and UV–VIS absorption measurements.
