  • In the world of science, significant discoveries can come in tiny packages. Picture being able to make and change things so small they’re nearly invisible. That’s where colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals shine. These super small wonders are made in solution and grown to have different sizes…

    and grow by examining the reaction solution at different times during the synthesis. The team also varied the temperature, solvents, and reactants to determine their role in the nanocrystals’ formation and growth. The ultimate goal of this project is to understand the synthesis well enough to develop new procedures to grow ZnSe nanorods with specific diameter and length. Student Voices | Hopson and Smith share about their summer researching colloidal ZnSe nanocrystals. CREATING REACTIONS: “Here, I

    work involves high intensity light where the energy of individual photons is not a limiting factor. Previous reports demonstrate that metallic nanoparticles are capable of performing oxidative reductions using lower intensity visible light. We are investigating the synthesis of silver nanoparticles for use in our LSC.   We confirmed that a silver nanoprism synthesis is   reproducibly tunable to our LSC emission of 585 nm. Further investigation is required regarding their efficacy as LSC
