    redshifts in the excitonic absorbance peaks of the QDs, consistent with literature reports. Observed redshifts were consistent with increase of apparent size of particles due to the ligand shell. The percent change in size ranged over 2-4% for QDs with initial radii of 1.38-1.88 nm; the change was more significant for smaller crystals. QD photoluminescence (PL) was quenched upon ligand exchange. We did not observe any shifts in the QD PL energy or emission from trap sites after ligand exchange. Tuesday
