Optimized Synthesis of CdTe Nanoplatelets and Photoresponse of CdTe Nanoplatelets Films
Abstract
We study in details the synthesis of CdTe nanoplatelets. Three populations of nanoplatelets with a thickness defined with atomic precision are obtained. We show that CdTe nanoplatelets can be extended laterally to obtain nanosheets with lateral dimensions in the micron range. We present the study of the reaction conditions for the formation of CdTe nanoplatelets and for their lateral extensions. The reaction products are analyzed with optical spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and small angle X-ray scattering. We investigate the electro-optical properties of films formed with CdTe nanoplatelets, and we show that their current photo-response is better than the one of comparable films formed with CdTe spherical nanocrystals.
