The CdSe QDs of green emission and the core-shell CdSe/ZnS QDs of red emission were prepared. Subsequently the trioctylphosphine oxide-stabilized CdSe/ZnS QDs were transferred from chloroform into water through a ligand exchange process with poly(glycino amino acid)phosphazenes, which can be obtained from the saponification of poly (glycino amino ester)phosphazenes at room temperature. The resulting QDs-polymer nanocomposite particles can form colloidally stable suspensions in water and exhibit good photostability.展开更多

By selectively exciting the core and shell carrier, the dynamics are studied in detail. Carrier relaxation is found faster in the conduction band of the CdS shell (about 130 fs) than that in the conduction band of the CdSe core (about 400 fs). From the experiments it is distinctly demonstrated the existence of the defect states in the interface between the CdSe core and the CdS shell, indicating that ultrafast spectroscopy might be a suitable tool in studying interface and surface morphology properties in nanosystems.展开更多
