Branched mercapto acid capped CdTe quantum dots as fluorescence probes for Hg2+ detection
Herein, we report the synthesis of CdTe quantum dots prepared by colloidal synthesis route using the branched mercapto acid, 3 Mercaptoisobutyric acid (3-MIBA) as capping agent. The as synthesized 3-MIBA capped CdTe quantum dot (CdTe@3-MIBA) was used as fluorescent probe to detect Hg2+. Further, the...
