Halide-Assisted Synthesis of Cadmium Chalcogenide Nanoplatelets

Abstract: Atomically flat colloidal semiconductor CdSe nanoplatelets (NPLs) with precisely controlled thickness possess a range of unique optoelectronic properties. Here, we study the growth of CdSe, CdTe, and CdS NPLs with the aim of synthesizing thicker NPLs in order to extend their optical activity further into the lower energy/larger wavelength range. We employ cadmium halides, which lead to faster reaction kinetics as confirmed by control experiments with cadmium hydroxide as a Cd-precursor. Addition of halides in … Show more

“…We attribute this difference to the growth of a CdS crown, which is in part slightly thicker than 4 MLs, as this will result in additional light absorption at higher wavelengths than 405 nm. 21,43 The original emission wavelength, however, will remain nearly unchanged in this case, as the thickness of the CdSe core does not change and the conduction band offset between CdSe and CdS is still comparably small, so that the exciton binding energy cannot be overcome. 44 It needs to be noted, that under the applied reaction conditions the formation of a complete CdS layer on the top and bottom facets of the core NPLs is generally unlikely, as it requires higher reaction temperatures and/or an excess of the chalcogenide precursor.…”

“…1(a)]. Therefore, we applied two already published protocols 21,43 as well as a new one inspired by the procedure for CdTe (CdSe) growth on CdSe NPLs. 32 In the procedure introduced by Tessier et al, 21 a pre-prepared mixture of oleic acid, cadmium acetate and sulphur in ODE is injected at a xed rate into a solution of the CdSe core NPLs in ODE at the reaction temperature.…”

“…[0][1][2][3][4] Another appealing aspect of these NPLs is the atomic precision over their growth anisotropy: II-VI cadmium chalcogenide NPLs can be synthesized with precisely 2-11 monolayer (ML) thicknesses, and show increasing control over their 2D lateral extent. [5][6][7][8][9] Such structures can also template other II-VI NPLs, including core-shell and core-crown Cd/Zn S/Se/Te heterostructures and mercury chalcogenide infrared emitters, which demonstrate comparable synthetic control. [10][11][12] With increased tunability of the NPL thickness, colloidal 2D materials warrant further exploration of the extent of synthetic modulation over their photophysical properties and device applicability.…”
