ABSTRACT

We examine the effects of CdS shell growth on photochemical reduction of colloidal CdSe quantum dots (QDs) and describe the spectroscopic properties of the resulting n-type CdSe/CdS QDs. CdS shell growth greatly slows electron trapping. Because of this improvement, complete two-electron occupancy of the 1S
