Direct Readout of Homo- vs Heterochiral Ligand Shell of Quantum Dots.

ABSTRACT: The chiroptical activity of various semiconductor inorganic nanocrystalline materials has typically been tested using circular dichroism or circularly polarized luminescence. Herein, we report on a high-throughput screening method for identifying and differentiating chiroptically active quantum-sized ZnO crystals using Raman spectroscopy combined with principal component analysis. ZnO quantum dots (QDs) coated by structurally diverse homo- and heterochiral aminoalcoholate ligands (cis- and trans-1-amino-2-indanolate, 2-amino-1-phenylethanolate, and diphenyl-2-pyrrolidinemethanolate) were prepared using the one-pot self-supporting organometallic procedure and then extensively studied toward the identification of specific Raman fingerprints and spectral variations.
