Abstract

Most of the reported methods for the development of carbon nanotube-quantum dot (CNT-QD) conjugates either use the application of cross-linkers or the treatment of CNT to form highly unstable acylated/thiolated precursor. The present work explores the synthesis of CNT-QD conjugates through simple electrostatic binding between the chlorinated CNTs and amine functionalized CdS QDs. This novel route helps in minimizing the chemical treatment to the CNTs surface. Absorption, infrared and Raman spectroscopic and microscopic studies have proved successful chlorination of the multiwalled CNT and their subsequent electrostatic attachment with QDs. The synthesized nanoconjugate has been electrodeposited as thin film that shows semiconducting behavior.
