Abstract

Poly(N-vinylpyrrolidine)-silica hybrid shell coated cadmium selenide / cadmium sulphide and cadmium selenide / zinc sulfide nanoparticles were synthesized by combining the organometallic and single “step” modified Stober method. The synthesized nanoparticles were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, and a spectrofluorometer. Concluding, this report has provided important insights into the design of new water-soluble polymer silica hybrid shell coated quantum dots nanoparticles for biomedical, analytical and catalytic applications.
