Abstract

Supramolecular nanocontainers based on monocationic and gemini surfactants and oppositely charged polyelectrolytes (polyacrylic acid, polyethyleneimine) for the stabilization and enhancement of solubility of hydrophobic quantum dots CdSe/ZnS were formed. The size (from 2 to 70 nm depending on the type of nanocontainers) and shape of aggregates containing quantum dots were determined by transmission electron microscopy. It was shown that the nature of the stabilizing agent influences the morphology of aggregates. The increase in photostability of quantum dots in micellar solutions of gemini surfactants and the possibility of their preservation in the polyelectrolyte capsules are identified.
