Photoelectron spectroscopy zinc complexes

The electrochemical oxidation of tyramine in NaOH/MeOH media gives films of polytyramine (25). The film, on a platinum electrode, can complex copper(II) ions from aqueous media and cobalt(II), iron(II), manganese(II) and zinc(II) from organic media. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy established that coordination of the metal ions had occurred. For cobalt, evidence of coordination to both ether and amine functions is obtained, but for the other metal ions evidence of ether coordination is less definitive.

As an alternative to doped QDs, ZnSe QDs capped with a europium complex were synthesised by the quick injection of selenium powder dissolved in ODA and TBP into a hot reaction mixture of zinc stearate and the Eu compound (either the acetate or acetylacetonate complex) in octadecene (ODE) at 310 °C. The XRD patterns of the resulting particles matched with the zinc blende phase of ZnSe and the particle size varied from ca. 3-4 nm in diameter according to TEM. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) showed that Eu was bonded to the surface of the Se ions. The as-synthesised hybrid QDs showed emission peaks from ZnSe QDs (455 nm) and the...
