Synthesis of BBN-TeH and its application to ZnTe QD growth. (a) Two-step synthesis of BBN-TeH. (b) Scheme for ZnTe QD growth using BBN-TeH and coordinating Lewis bases. (c) Identification of Tind with different c-LBs by monitoring the position of the first absorption peak of ZnTe QDs, (d) Influence of c-LBs with varying BF3 affinity (ΔH) on Tind. (red: dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP), orange: 1-methylpyrrolidine, green: picoline, blue: 3-chloropyridine (3-ClPy), purple: 4-(trimethylfluoro)-pyridine (4-CF3Py)), (e) Absorption spectra of ZnSe QDs during growth using BBN-TeH and picoline.
