Figure 18 Absorption (solid line) and PL (dashed line) spectra for medium-length(3.3 21 nm) CdSe nanorods; (a) core nanorods without ZnS shell; (b) (core)shellnanorods with thin CdS–ZnS shells (f2 monolayers of shell material, where the CdS‘‘buffer’’ shell comprises f35% of the total shell); (c) (core)shell nanorods withmedium CdS–ZnS shells (f4.5 monolayers of shell material, where the CdS ‘‘buffer’’shell comprises f22% of the total shell). PL spectra were recorded followingphotoannealing of the samples. (From Ref. 40 reprinted with permission.)acid-controlled reactions. In addition, CdS rods and multipods can beprepared in a monosurfactant system in which hexadecylamine (HDA) servesboth as the stabilizing ligand and as the shape-determining ligand [41]. Here,rod and multipod formation is temperature dependent. Rods form at hightemperatures (f300jC), whereas bipods, tripods, and tetrapods dominate atlower temperature (120–180jC). The dependence of shape on temperaturelikely results from preferential formation of wurtzite CdS nuclei (thermodynamicphase) at high temperatures and zinc-blende nuclei (kinetic phase) atlower temperatures. As in the CdSe system, the zinc-blende {111} faces cansupport fast growth of (001 ) wurtzite ‘‘arms.’’ Significantly, this method<strong>Copyright</strong> <strong>2004</strong> <strong>by</strong> <strong>Marcel</strong> <strong>Dekker</strong>, <strong>Inc</strong>. <strong>All</strong> <strong>Rights</strong> <strong>Reserved</strong>.
