Abstract:

Ag2Te quantum dots(QDs) with an emission in the second near-infrared window were synthesized by tuning the ratio of Ag precursor to Te precursor using 1-octanethiol as a ligand. The products were characterized by transmission electron microscopy(TEM), X-ray powder diffraction(XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS), UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectroscopy and the corresponding photoluminescence(PL) spectroscopy. The as-prepared Ag2Te QDs have a narrow size distribution, good dispersibility with fluorescence emission at 1320 nm and a PL quantum yield of 4.2%.

Key words: Near-infrared, Ag2Te, Quantum dot, Fluorescence
