In this paper, we predict the nucleation phase of as-synthesized manganese (Mn) doped cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) at an intrinsic physical size of 3 (± 0.1 – 0.9) nm via photoluminescence (PL) studies. The nucleation phase was analyzed at temporal evolution (16, 46 and 90 mins) and temperature (210, 215 and 220 ºC) below the CdSe QDs reaction temperature (210 and 215 ºC) to it reaction temperature (220 ºC). The PL spectra`s observed to be against the QDs ripening behaviour of QDs since there are no prominent red-shift of PL spectra`s. However, the intensity of PL spectra`s shows to be varied with different temperatures and times.

In this work, we report on the effects of incorporating manganese (Mn) dopant into different sizes of cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs), which improves the electronic and optical properties of the QDs for multiple applications such as light-emitting diodes, lasers, and biological labels. Furthermore, the greener inverse Micelle method was implemented using organic ligand, which is oleic acid. This binding of the surface enhanced the QDs’ surface trap passivation of Mn-doped CdSe, which then increased the quantity of the output. In addition, the inverse Micelle technique was used successfully to dope Mn into CdSe QDs without the risk of Mn dopants being self-purified as experienced by wurtzite CdSe QDs. Also, we report the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results and analysis of zinc blended manganese-doped cadmium selenide quantum dots (Mn-doped CdSe QDs), which were synthesized with physical sizes that varied from 3 to 14 nm using the inverse Micelle method. The XPS scans traced the existence of the Se 3d and Cd 3d band of CdSe crystals with a 54.1 and 404.5 eV binding energy. The traced 640.7 eV XPS peak is proof that Mn was integrated into the lattice of CdSe QDs. The binding energy of the QDs was related to the increase in the size of the QDs.

Highly ordered arrays consisting uniform fluorescent cadmium selenide ( CdSe ) quantum dots (QDs) ring or dot structures were obtained by self-assembly of QDs on chemically patterned substrates. In this method, Au substrates with alternating hydrophobic and hydrophilic square patterns are firstly fabricated by microcontact printing, which allows water droplets to condense on the hydrophilic regions to provide two-dimensional template arrays. The CdSe QDs are then assembled at the liquid/liquid interfaces to give uniform micro or nanostructures. The shape and size of the rings and dots can be tailored by controlling the relative evaporation speed of the water and the organic solvents. The obtained nanostructures have ideal topography to avoid substrate-induced fluorescence quenching.

UV-Vis spectroscopy and PL data show that structural incorporation of Eu3+ has an effect on the optical properties of CdSe QDs via energy transfer from host to dopant. This allows for QDs with tunable optical properties via numerous pathways.

We have investigated the effect of water (H2O) cooling and heat treatment on the luminescence efficiency of core CdSe quantum dots (QDs). The photoluminescence (PL) quantum yield of the CdSe QDs was enhanced up to ~85%, and some periodic bright points were observed in wide color ranges during the heat treatment of QDs mixed with H2O. The PL enhancement of QDs could be attributed to the recovery of QDs surface traps by unreacted ligands confined within the hydrophilic H2O molecule containers.

Cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized by water phase synthesis method using 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) as a stabilizer, and they were applied to the detection of copper ions (Cu2+). The results showed that CdSe QDs have excellent selectivity and sensitivity toward Cu2+. The fluorescence intensity of CdSe QDs decreased with the increase of Cu2+ concentration. The linear range was from 30 nM to 3 μM, and the detection limit was 30 nM. Furthermore, CdSe QDs were used for detecting the concentration of Cu2+ in oysters. The content of Cu2+ was 40.91 mg/kg, which was close to the one measured via flame atomic absorption spectrometry (FAAS), and the relative error was 1.81%. Therefore, CdSe QDs have a wide application prospect in the rapid detection of copper ions in food.

Dependence of photoluminescence (PL) efficiency (ΦPL) of CdSe quantum dots (QDs) on coordinating solvents, precursors, and dispersing solvents was investigated. The ΦPL of CdSe QDs was ∼0.05 when synthesized at 120 °C using the precursors, cadmium acetate (CdAc) and trioctylphosphine selenide (TOPSe) in trioctylphosphine (TOP). The ΦPL was increased from 0.05 to ∼0.1 when coordinating solvents, trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) and hexadecylamine (HDA), were added to the above reaction mixture. The ΦPL was dramatically increased from ∼0.1 to ∼0.7 when CdAc was replaced by cadmium stearate (CdSt). The ΦPL of CdSe QDs synthesized using cadmium stearate (CdSt)/TOPSe/TOP/TOPO was measured in butanol, chloroform, hexane, and toluene and found that the ΦPL is strong dispersing solvent-dependent. The DFT analysis at b3lyp/lanl2dz level on the interaction of CdSe QDs with chemical environments showed that oxygen-containing molecules interact strongly with CdSe compared to non-oxygen containing molecules and could influence the ΦPL.
