Abstract

Processes of adsorption modification of particle surface of disperse phase upon introduction of thioglycolic acid into highly dispersed systems based on CdTe were studied. It was shown that the selection of stabilizer composition and solvent enables purposeful effect on the properties of these systems. The stabilization of CdTe particles in highly dispersed and nanosized systems was found to be best conducted with the use of methanol and ethanol as a solvent. The postsynthetic treatment of colloidal solutions of CdTe nanocrystals with absolute ethyl alcohol was found to improve considerably their photoluminescent properties.
