High-quality CdS nanocrystals with highly efficient and narrow band edge emission have been prepared by means of decomposition of suitable precursors in non-coordinating solvents at high temperature. The role played by capping ligands, solvents and their interactions has been investigated by optical measurements. Capping layer exchange treatments with different amines have been carried out suggesting a possible influence of alkylic chain length in modifying the optical properties of CdS nanocrystals.

Abstract
High-quality CdS nanocrystals with highly efficient and narrow band edge emission have been prepared by means of decomposition of suitable precursors in non-coordinating solvents at high temperature. The role played by capping ligands, solvents and their interactions has been investigated by optical measurements. Capping layer exchange treatments with different amines have been carried out suggesting a possible influence of alkylic chain length in modifying the optical properties of CdS nanocrystals. Enhancement of band edge emission has been demonstrated with octylamine ligand. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.File in questo prodotto:
