Abstract

One brand-new colloidal ensemble of single-sized CdTe nanocrystals, exhibiting a sharp first excitonic absorption peak at 427 nm and bright bandgap photoluminescence at 427 nm with narrow full width at half maximum (FWHM) of only ca. 10 nm, was synthesized in 1-octadecene (ODE) via a non-injection one-pot approach which features high synthetic reproducibility with potential for industrial scale production.
