Abstract

The results of infrared electroluminescence (EL) in nanocomposites of PbS in a semiconducting polymer was presented. The optical absorption of the pure ligand solution was measured to isolate the possibility of optical absorption directly by the ligands independent of the nanocrystals. A transmission electron microscope (TEM) image of nanocrystals with the C18 capping ligand dissolved in toluene.
