摘要
Thioglycolic acid(TGA)-stabilized CdTe nanocrystals(NCs) were prepared with sodium tellurite as tellurium source,which avoids the cumbersome processes associated with H2Te or NaHTe sources.Fluorescent CdTe/SiO2 composites were synthesized by a sol-gel method without the exchange of surface ligands.The phase structure of CdTe NCs was investigated by X-ray diffractometry.For comparison,some characterizations were done for both the CdTe NCs and the composites.CdTe NCs and CdTe/SiO2 composites were characterized with TEM,digital camera and fluorescence spectrophotometer.The stability of CdTe NCs and the composites were investigated in phosphate-buffered saline(PBS) buffer and the fluorescent properties of the composites were discussed in detail.
