Figure C2.17.12. Exciton energy shift witli particle size. The lowest exciton energy is measured by optical absorjDtion for a number of different CdSe nanocrystal samples, and plotted against tire mean nanocrystal radius. The mean particle radii have been detennined using eitlier small-angle x-ray scattering (open circles) or TEM (squares). The solid curve is tire predicted exciton energy from tire Bms fonnula.

TBP and injected into a hot ( 350 °C) solution of TOPO (12 g). The injection of CdSe precursors into the hot solution ofTOPO resulted in spontaneous nucleation of CdSe nanocrystals and a decrease in temperature. Once the temperature was stabilized, an additional amount (0.4 mL) of the precursor solution was added for the growth of the nucleated nanocrystals. Here, Ostwald ripening was avoided by separating the nucleation and growth processes. All the reagents and the reaction were kept under an Ar atmosphere to avoid fire hazard and surface oxidation of the nanocrystals.
