Abstract
The quest of exploring alternative materials for the replacement of toxic cadmium- and lead-based quantum dots (QDs) is necessary for envisaging a sustainable future but remains highly challenging. Tackling this issue, we present the synthesis of Zn3P2 nanocrystals (NCs) of unprecedented quality. New, reactive zinc precursors yield highly crystalline, colloidally stable particles, exhibiting oxide-free surfaces, size tunability and outstanding optical properties relative to previous reports of zinc phosphide QDs.
