Abstract EN
Stable luminescence, size-tunability, and biocompatibility encourage the deployment of Cd-free NPs into diverse biological applications.
Here we report one-pot synthesis of blue-emitting and polymerizable silicon quantum dots (Si QDs) from which water-soluble Si QDs embedded polystyrene nanoparticles (SiQD@PS NPs) were prepared using a miniemulsion polymerization approach.
The hydrodynamic size of NPs was controlled by KOH to oleic acid molar ratio.
Studies on the photoluminescence properties of SiQD@PS NPs in different conditions reveal that they exhibit two-photon luminescence property and high stability against pH and UV exposure.
These NPs add new size regime to the Si QDs based luminescent makers for bioimaging and therapy applications.
