Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method of ZnSe / ZnS core-shell quantum dots through illumination assisted room-temperature synthesis. The method comprises the steps of: A. preparing a potassium hydrogen selenide solution by reducing selenium powder with potassium borohydride; B. weighing zinc acetate crystals, which is then dissolved in deionized water to a constant volume, thus obtaining a zinc acetate solution; C. adding quantitative thioglycolic acid into the zinc acetate solution; D. adjusting the solution to a specific pH value with a sodium hydroxide solution; E. after introducing an inert gas for deoxygenation, adding the potassium hydrogen selenide solution; F. placing the stock solution or a diluted solution of the mixed solution under an ultraviolet light for radiation for a certain period of time, and conducting detection with fluorescence spectrum analysis; and G. adding isopropyl alcohol for purification, then carrying out drying by a freeze drier so as to obtain ZnSe / ZnS core-shell quantum dot solid powder, which is dissolved in a PBS solution or deionized water before using, thus obtaining a ZnSe / ZnS core-shell quantum dot solution. The method of the invention has the advantages of simple process, easily controllable technological parameters, as well as cheap raw materials. The synthesized ZnSe / ZnS core-shell quantum dots are free of heavy metal ions, and can be used for biological labeling and imaging.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the synthesis of fluorescent nanomaterials, and more specifically to a method for preparing ZnSe / ZnS core-shell quantum dots at room temperature in aqueous phase. The synthesized quantum dots do not contain heavy gold ions and can be used for biomarking and imaging. Background technique [0002] ZnSe quantum dots have become a research hotspot because they do not contain heavy metal ions and have high biocompatibility. The ZnSe quantum dots synthesized in the organic phase are not hydrophilic, and must be exchanged into the water phase through ligand exchange before being applied to the biological system. The operation process is complicated and the conditions are high. Quantum dots prepared by aqueous phase synthesis can be directly used in biological probes, and its research has attracted more and more attention, and the research on this aspect has progressed rapidly. Among them, the most studied one is the hydrothermal synt...
