“…In the past decades, there are many studies on the preparation of InP quantum dots (QDs), such as colloid chemistry, molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), organometallic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) and physical vapor deposition [5][6][7][8]. Typically, the monodispersed InP nanoparticles can be prepared by the dehalosilylation reaction between InCl 3 and [(CH 3 ) 3 Si] 3 P in either trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) or a mixture of TOPO and trioctylphosphine (TOP) at 270 1C followed with the size-selective reprecipitation [4,[9][10][11] or by the direct decomposition of In[P(t-Bu) 2 ] 3 complex in 4-ethylpyridine at 167 1C [12].…”
