Synthesis and Properties of Water-Soluble Silica-Coated ZnSe/ZnS Semiconductor Quantum Dots
TL;DR: The photoluminescence (PL) intensity of ZnS coated ZnSe/ZnS quantum dots is more than three times higher than that of non-coated QDs as mentioned in this paper, by partial interchange of the capping ligand from thioglycolic acid (TGA) to 3-mercaptopropyltri-methoxysilane (MPS).
