Summary: | We report the synthesis of ZnS and ZnS:Cu (copper doped ZnS) quantum dots by chemical method at room temperature. In this technique ZnS and ZnS:Cu quantum dots are produced by simple chemical reactions where zeolite acts as matrix and plays the key role in controlling particle growth during synthesis. ZnS exhibits luminescence properties such as Zn2+ related emission. ZnS:Cu possesses Cu related emission, efficient low voltage electroluminescence, and super linear voltage-brightness electroluminescence characteristics. This study demonstrates the technological importance of semiconductor quantum dots prepared by low cost chemical route. |
