摘要
CuInS2 (CIS) quantum dots (QDs) have tunable photoluminescence (PL) behaviors in the visible and near infrared spectral range with markedly lower toxicity than the cadmium-based counterparts, making them very promising applications in light emitting and solar harvesting. However, there still remain material- and fabrication- related obstacles in realizing the high-performance CIS-based QDs with well-resolved Mn2+ d-d emission, long emission lifetimes as well as high efficiencies. Here, we demonstrate the growth of high-quality Mn2+-doped CuInS-ZnS (CIS-ZnS) QDs based on a multi-step hot-injection strategy. The resultant QDs exhibit a well-resolved Mn2+ d-d emission with a high PL quantum yield (QY) up to 66% and an extremely long excited state lifetime up to similar to 3.78 ms, which is nearly two times longer than the longest one of "green'' QDs ever reported. It is promising that the synthesized Mn2+-doped CIS-ZnS QDs might open new doors for their practical applications in bioimaging and opto/electronic devices.
