    Colloidal Aluminum Antimonide Quantum Dots
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2019-06-10) Jalali, Houman Bahmani; Sadeghi, Sadra; Sahin, Mehmet; Ozturk, Hande; Ow-Yang, Cleva W.; Nizamoglu, Sedat; Bahmani Jalali, Houman
    AlSb is a less studied member of the III-V semiconductor family, and herein, we report the colloidal synthesis of AlSb quantum dots (QDs) for the first time. Different sizes of colloidal AlSb QDs (5 to 9 nm) were produced by the controlled reaction of AlCl3 and Sb[N(Si(Me)(3))(2)](3) in the presence of superhydride. These colloidal AlSb quantum dots showed excitonic transitions in the UV-A region and a tunable band edge emission (quantum yield of up to 18%) in the blue spectral range. Among all III-V quantum dots, these quantum dots show the brightest core emission in the blue spectral region.

    Cation Exchange Mediated Synthesis of Bright Au@ZnTe Core-Shell Nanocrystals
    (IOP Publishing Ltd, 2020-10-16) Sadeghi, Sadra; Melikov, Rustamzhon; Sahin, Mehmet; Nizamoglu, Sedat
    The synthesis of heterostructured core-shell nanocrystals has attracted significant attention due to their wide range of applications in energy, medicine and environment. To further extend the possible nanostructures, non-epitaxial growth is introduced to form heterostructures with large lattice mismatches, which cannot be achieved by classical epitaxial growth techniques. Here, we report the synthetic procedure of Au@ZnTe core-shell nanostructures by cation exchange reaction for the first time. For that, bimetallic Au@Ag heterostructures were synthesized by using PDDA as stabilizer and shape-controller. Then, by addition of Te and Zn precursors in a step-wise reaction, the zinc and silver cation exchange was performed and Au@ZnTe nanocrystals were obtained. Structural and optical characterization confirmed the formation of the Au@ZnTe nanocrystals. The optimization of the synthesis led to the bright nanocrystals with a photoluminescence quantum yield up to 27%. The non-toxic, versatile synthetic route, and bright emission of the synthesized Au@ZnTe nanocrystals offer significant potential for future bio-imaging and optoelectronic applications.

    Cadmium-Free and Efficient Type-II InP/ZnO Quantum Dots and Their Application for Leds
    (Amer Chemical Soc, 2021-07-01) Eren, Guncem Ozgun; Sadeghi, Sadra; Jalali, Houman Bahmani; Ritter, Maximilian; Han, Mertcan; Baylam, Isinsu; Nizamoglu, Sedat; Bahmani Jalali, Houman
    It is a generally accepted perspective that type-II nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) have low quantum yield due to the separation of the electron and hole wavefunctions. Recently, high quantum yield levels were reported for cadmium-based typeII QDs. Hence, the quest for finding non-toxic and efficient type-II QDs is continuing. Herein, we demonstrate environmentally benign type-II InP/ZnO/ZnS core/shell/shell QDs that reach a high quantum yield of similar to 91%. For this, ZnO layer was grown on core InP QDs by thermal decomposition, which was followed by a ZnS layer via successive ionic layer adsorption. The small-angle Xray scattering shows that spherical InP core and InP/ZnO core/ shell QDs turn into elliptical particles with the growth of the ZnS shell. To conserve the quantum efficiency of QDs in device architectures, InP/ZnO/ZnS QDs were integrated in the liquid state on blue light-emitting diodes (LEDs) as down-converters that led to an external quantum efficiency of 9.4% and a power conversion efficiency of 6.8%, respectively, which is the most efficient QD-LED using type-II QDs. This study pointed out that cadmium-free type-II QDs can reach high efficiency levels, which can stimulate novel forms of devices and nanomaterials for bioimaging, display, and lighting.
