Fast and Straightforward Synthesis of Luminescent Titanium(IV)‎ Dioxide Quantum Dots

الملخص EN

The nucleus of titania was prepared by reaction of solution titanium oxosulphate with hydrazine hydrate.

These titania nuclei were used for titania quantum dots synthesis by a simple and fast method.

The prepared titanium(IV) dioxide quantum dots were characterized by measurement of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic force microscopy (AFM), high-resolution electron microscopy (HRTEM), and selected area electron diffraction (SAED).

The optical properties were determined by photoluminescence (PL) spectra.

The prepared titanium(IV) dioxide quantum dots have the narrow range of UV excitation (365–400 nm) and also a close range of emission maxima (450–500 nm).
