Synthesis and Properties of Nanosilicon Stabilized by Butyl and Perfluorobutyl Ligands

摘要

Nanocrystalline silicon stabilized by butyl and perfluorobutyl ligands that form improper surface states of silicon nanocrystals were synthesized. The presence of perfluorobutyl ligands on the surface of silicon nanocrystals was proved by IR spectroscopy. Nanocrystals with perfluorobutyl ligands form aggregates, which decreases the efficiency of photoluminescence. The nanocrystals with butyl ligands have smaller size but their photoluminescence can be clearly recorded.
