AbstractCdSe and CdTe nanoclusters were formed in aqueous solutions at moderate temperatures by a wet chemical route in the presence of thiols as effective stabilizing agents. The nature of the stabilizing agent (thioalcohols or thioacids) had an important influence on the particle size and largely determined the photoluminescence properties. The nanoclusters were characterized by means of UV-vis absorption and photoluminescence spectroscopy, powder X-ray diffraction, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, and extended X-ray absorption fine structure measurements. CdSe and CdTe nanoclusters were crystalline, in the cubic zincblende phase, with mean sizes in the range of 2 to 5 nm depending on the preparative conditions and the postpreparative size-selective fractionation, and showed pronounced electronic transitions in the absorption spectra. Thioglycerol-stabilized CdTe nanoclusters possessed sharp band-egde photoluminescence being tunable with particle size.

Silica based ceramics are some of the most fundamental in crystal chemistry. The cristobalite form of silica has two modifications, α (low temperature, tetragonal form) and β (high temperature, cubic form). This paper describes our structural studies of unusual chemically stabilized cristobalite (CSC) material, a room temperature silica-based ceramic containing small amounts of dopants, prepared by a wet chemical route. It displays many of the structural charatcteristics of the high temperature β-cristobalite (∼270°C), but does not undergo phase inversion to α-cristobalite upon cooling. The Structure of α-cristobalite is well established, but that of β is not yet fully understood.Compositions with varying Ca/Al ratio and substitutions in cristobalite were prepared in the series, CaO:Al2O3:SiO2 : 3-x: x : 40, with x= 0-3. For CSC, a clear sol was prepared from Du Pont colloidal silica, Ludox AS-40®, aluminium nitrate nonahydrate, and calcium nitrate hexahydrate in proportions to form a final composition 1:2:40 composition.
