摘要
CdSe nanoparticles were synthesized using a simple chemical reduction route at room temperature. Nanoparticle size was controlled by the amount of reducing agent and was characterized by TEM and TED. With increased amounts of sodium borohydride as a reducing agent, the size of the nanoparticles decreased. Size of the nanoparticles varies between 5 and 12 nm with a size dispersion of 1.5 nm. The grown sample was ultra-sonicated in ethanol. The dispersed sample was characterized structurally, optically and electrically. The long-duration photoconductive decay at room temperature shows exponential variation under weak illumination. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
