A Novel Synthesis of Cadmium Phosphide Nanoparticles Using the Single-Source Precursor [MeCdPtBu2]3

Advanced Materials· Volume 10· Issue 7

Abstract

A single-source precursor route to Cd3P2 nanoparticles is reported. Their synthesis via the thermolysis of [MeCdPtBu2]3—itself obtained using an improved procedure—in tri-n-octylphosphine oxide (TOPO) is described. The resulting TOPO-capped cadmium phosphide quantum dots are characterized by a combination of UV-vis and fluorescence emission spectroscopies, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, and elemental analysis. The effect of preparing samples with injection temperatures above 100°C is also investigated.
