Abstract.
A simple route to the fabrication of methacrylate polymer containing Mn-doped ZnS nanoparticles is described. The particles prepared have sizes as small as 1.8–2 nm, capped or modified by methacrylate polymer, and the thermal, mechanical, chemical stability, life and luminescence intensity are greatly improved. The particle sizes can be easily controlled by changing the number-average degrees of polymerization, which can be realized by adjusting the molar ratio of monomer to chain-transfer agent.
