The invention belongs to the method for compounding cadmium selenide and quanta of cadmium telluride, which is: use cadmium oxide containing 2~18 carbon atom as cadmium source, selenium powder as selenium source and tellurium powder as tellurium source, and the mol ratio of cadmiumsource and selenium source or tellurium source is 5:1-1:5, dissolve the selenium and tellurium powder with tricapryl phosphine, make oleic acid, and tricapryl phosphine oxide as enveloping agent and the mol ratio of cadmium source and enveloping agent is 1:2-1:6, use benzene, toluene, cyclohexane, normal hexane and normal heptane as solvent, under the condition that the density of cadmium source is 0.001-0.015M, the temperature in autoclave is 140-180deg.C, heat them for 0.8-16 hours and obtain cadmium selenide and quanta of cadmium telluride with different sizes by changing the reaction time. The cadmium selenide and quanta of cadmium telluride has narrower size distribution which is shown as narrower shooting of fluorescence whose half-peak width of quanta of cadmium selenide is 22-33nm and that of quanta of cadmium telluride is 29-35nm.
