A new nanohybrid material is prepared by attaching CdTe nanoneedles (NNs) to surface-modified ZnSe quantum dots (QDs). The NNs and QDs are prepared by a colloidal synthesis method in an aqueous alkaline medium. The surface modification and the attachment of nanostructures are achieved by a bifunctional ligand 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA). The band gap of the ZnSe QDs is varied by controlling the size of the QDs in order to get the maximum overlap between the absorption band of the CdTe NNs a ...[more]
