摘要
Au/CdTe nanocomposites were prepared by electrostatic interaction between oppositely-charged gold (Au) and cadmium telluride (CdTe) nanoparticles. Au and CdTe nanoparticles were stabilized by 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine (DMAP) and 3-mercaptopropionic acid to develop positive and negative charges on their surfaces in aqueous solutions, respectively. The red shifts of the surface plasmon absorptions with the increase of Au content indicate that the sizes of the nanocomposites expanded due to the complex formation. Mixing ratio of Au and CdTe nanoparticles controls the structure of the resulting composites effectively. Moreover, the sizes and shapes of the mixed nanoparticles are important parameters for the formation of metal/semiconductor nanocomposites. The Au/CdTe nanocomposites were characterized by small angle X-ray scattering technique (SAXS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
将相反电荷的纳米Au和纳米CdTe通过静电作用得到纳米复合Au/CdTe粒子。在水溶液中分别用二甲氨基吡啶和巯基丙酸稳定纳米Au和CdTe粒子,使其表面分别带有正电荷与负电荷。Au/CdTe纳米复合材料的表面等离子体吸收光谱随着Au含量的增加而红移,表明纳米复合Au/CdTe粒子的长大是由于配位形成而引起的。纳米Au和纳米CdTe的比影响纳米复合Au/CdTe粒子的结构。复合纳米Au/CdTe粒子的尺寸和形状是影响金属/半导体纳米复合材料性能的重要参数。用小角X射线散射技术、透射电子显微镜、循环伏安法和X射线光电子能谱来表征纳米复合Au/CdTe粒子。
