Shape ellipticity dependence of the exciton fine energy levels in CdTe and CdSe nanocrystal quantum dots were compared theoretically by considering the crystal structure and the Coulomb interaction of an electron and a hole. While quantum dot ellipticity changes from an oblate to prolate quantum dot via spherical shape, both the fine energy levels and the dipole moment in wurtzite structure of a CdSe quantum dot change linearly for ellipticity. In contrast, CdTe quantum dots were found to show a level crossing between the bright and dark exciton states with a significant change of the dipole moment due to the cubic structure. Shape ellipticity dependence of the optical nonlinearities in CdTe and CdSe nanocrystal quantum dots was also calculated by using semiconductor Bloch equations. For a spherical shape quantum dot, only $1^L$ dominates the optical nonlinearities in a CdSe quantum dot, but both $1^U$ and $0^U$ contribute in a CdTe quantum dot. As excitation pulse area becomes strong (${\sim}{\pi}$), the optical nonlinearities of both CdSe and CdTe quantum dots are mainly governed by absorption saturation. However, in the case of a prolate CdTe quantum dot, the real part of the nonlinear refractive index becomes relatively significant.

New issues arise as to surface characterization, quantification and interface formation. Surface and interface control of CdSe nanocrystal systems, one of the most studied and useful nanostructures. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have been the subject of much interest for both fundamental reseach and technical applications in recent years, due mainly to their strong size dependent properties and excellent chemical processibility. In this dissertation, the synthesis of CdSe quantum dots were synthesized by pyrolysis of high-temperature organometallic reagents. In order to modify the size and quality of quantum dots, we controlled the growth temperature and the relative amount of precursors to be injected into the coordinating solvent. Moreover, an effective surface passivation of monodisperse nanocrystals was achieved by overcoating them with a higher-band-gap material. Synthesized CdSe quantum dots were studied to evaluate the optical, electronic and structural properties using UV-absorption, and photoluminescence measurement.

In this paper, we fabricated the optoelectronic device based on Cadmium selenide(CdSe) nanocrystal quantum dots (NQDs)/single-walled carbon nanotubes(SWNTs) heterostructure using dieletrophoretic force. The efficient charge transfer phenomena from CdSe to SWNT make CdSe-Pyridine(py)-SWNT unique heterostructures for novel optoelectronic device. The conductivity of CdSe-py-SWNT was increased when it was exposed at ultra violet(UV) lamp, and varied as a function of wavelength of incident light.

We report on the light-emitting diode (LED) characteristics of core-shell CdSe/ZnS nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) embedded in $TiO_2$thin films on a Si substrate. A simple p-n junction could be formed when nanocrystal QDs on a p-type Si substrate were embedded in ${\sim}5\;nm$ thick $TiO_2$ thin film, which is inherently an n-type semiconductor. The $TiO_2$ thin film was deposited over QDs at $200^{\circ}C$ using plasma-enhanced metallorganic chemical vapor deposition. The LED structure of $TiO_2$/QDs/Si showed typical p-n diode currentvoltage and electroluminescence characteristics. The colloidal core-shell CdSe/ZnS QDs were synthesized via pyrolysis in the range of $220-280^{\circ}C$. Pyrolysis conditions were optimized through systematic studies as functions of synthesis temperature, reaction time, and surfactant amount.

For desired optical properties of QDs, it is very important to reduce the presence of defects on their surfaces. Passivation of surface defects using larger band gap materials is the most effective way. Some groups successfully synthesized Cd based multi-shell structured quantum dots and improved its optical properties. However, its productivity has limit because of the amounts of glass ware and space. In this research, we try to synthesize Cd based multi-shell structured nanocrystal quantum dots to overcome demerits of conventional batch synthetic method. This reactor composed pump, SUS reaction part (3.2 mm stainless steel and furnace) and batch mixer. We successively synthesized CdSe/CdS/ZnS quantum dot at this reactor in one step.

Prepared CdSe nanoparticles were systems, one of the most studied and useful nanostructures. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) have been the subject of much interest for both fundamental reseach and technical applications in recent years, due mainly to their strong size dependent properties and excellent chemical processibility. CdSe nanocrystals were synthesized by using sol-gel process. Synthesized CdSe quantum dots were studied to evaluate the optical, electronic and structural properties using UV-absorption, and photoluminescence (PL) measurement. Prepared CdSe nanoparticles were subjected to sense hydrofluoric acid. Photoluminescence was quenched upon adding of hydrofluoric acid.

CdSe 기반 나노결정의 구리이온에 의한 형광 소광 특성 및 아연이온에 의한 형광 회복 특성을 관찰하였다. 구리이온이 첨가되었을 경우, CdSe 양자점에서는 매우 빠르고 급격한 형광 소광 특성을 보이는 반면에 CdSe 나노라드의 경우에서는 형광이 서서히 소광되는 특성을 보인다. 구리이온으로 형광을 소광시킨 CdSe/CdS(핵/껍질) 양자점에 아연이온이 첨가되면 소광된 양자점의 형광이 회복된다. 용액 내 1 μM의 아연농도에서 양자점의 형광이 50% 증가됨을 확인하였으며, 아연 농도가 증가함에 따라 양자점의 형광세기가 증가되며 이는 Langmuir binding isotherm 모델로 해석할 수 있다. 이러한 연구를 바탕으로 CdSe 기반의 나노결정을 이용한 형광 화학 센서를 구현할 수 있을 것으로 기대한다.

Conjugated nanocrystals using CdSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystal quantum dots modified by organic linkers and glucose oxidase (GOx) were prepared for use as biosensors. The trioctylphophine oxide (TOPO)-capped QDs were first modified to give them water-solubility by terminal carboxyl groups that were bonded to the amino groups of GOx through an EDC/NHS coupling reaction. As the glucose concentration increased, the photoluminescence intensity was enhanced linearly due to the electron transfer during the enzymatic reaction. The UV-visible spectra of the as-prepared QDs are identical to that of QDs-MAA. This shows that these QDs do not become agglomerated during ligand exchanges. A photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopic study showed that the PL intensity of the QDs-GOx bioconjugates was increased in the presence of glucose. These glucose sensors showed linearity up to approximately 15 mM and became gradually saturated above 15 mM because the excess glucose did not affect the enzymatic oxidation reaction past that amount. These biosensors show highly sensitive variation in terms of their photoluminescence depending on the glucose concentration.
