A green luminescent MoS₂-CdTe hybrid nanostructure synthesized through surface charge interaction.

ABSTRACT: During the last few years, intensive research has been carried out on the synthesis of different hybrid nanostructures mostly using hydrothermal and solvothermal techniques. But the fabrication of the hybrid nanostructure through surface charge interaction of the individual components is comparatively less explored. Here in this work, a hybrid nanostructure based on MoS₂ and CdTe quantum dots is synthesized through a simple surface charge interaction process using the negative surface charge of the excess sulfide ions (S^2-) present at the edge of the MoS₂ QDs and positively charged CdTe QDs where the positive surface charge was induced in CdTe by using a cysteamine ligand in acidic medium. In the photoluminescence (PL) emission spectrum, a new peak is obser
