Highly photoluminescent ternary alloyed Mn-doped ZnSeS and core/shell Mn:ZnSeS/ZnS quantum dots were successfully synthesized using a simple aqueous route with thiolactic acid as a capping ligand. The photoluminescence quantum yield was found to depend on the Mn loading and increased after the growth of ZnS shell on Mn:ZnSeS cores, leading to the effective elimination of surface-trap states.
Highly photoluminescent and water dispersible ternary alloyed Mn-doped ZnSeS and core/shell Mn:ZnSeS/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) with pure dopant emission were synthesized through a simple aqueous route using thiolactic acid (2-MPA) as a capping ligand. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray diffraction show that Mn:ZnSeS nanocrystals are of spherical shape, with a diameter of 2.4 nm and a cubic zinc blende structure. With the overcoating of the ZnS shell, the particle size increases to 3.7 nm, which confirms the epitaxial growth of the shell on Mn:ZnSeS cores. The photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield depends on the Mn loading and reaches 22% for Mn:ZnSeS cores doped with 10% Mn and 41% after the growth of ZnS at the surface of the cores due to the effective elimination of surface-trap states. Mn:ZnSeS QDs exhibit also long PL lifetimes (up to 681 mu s) indicating that the emission originates from the spin forbidden mn(2+) 4T(1) -> (6)A(1) transition. Electron paramagnetic resonance and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results suggest that Mn2+ ions are located at the interface of core/shell Mn:ZnSeS/ZnS QDs. Further, the stability of Mn:ZnSeS/ZnS QDs was also investigated along with their transfer in organic phase using octanethiol. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
