Nucleation and Growth of CdSe Nanocrystals in a Binary Ligand System
Open accessAbstract
The competing effects of two ligands, oleic acid (OA) and bis-(2,2,4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid (TMPPA), on the nucleation rate and growth of CdSe nanocrystals in octadecene are reported. It is found that TMPPA acts as a high boiling point "nonsolvent" or "nucleating agent". Addition of TMPPA leads to higher initial particle yields and smaller particle diameters. Conversely, oleic acid inhibits nucleation and results in a drastic increase in "early time ripening" (ETR), a phenomenon that causes a rapid reduction in the number of particles within the first minutes of reaction. By controlling the number of nuclei formed with TMPPA and tuning the rate of ETR with oleic acid, high yields of particles can be obtained with sizes between 3 and 7 nm. Furthermore, in the absence of OA, the preparation of very small nanocrystals with diameters approximately 2 nm is facilitated.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
