title: Near-infrared photoluminescent Ag2S quantum dots from a single source precursor.
abstract: Monodisperse Ag(2)S quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized via pyrolysis of Ag(DDTC) in oleic acid, octadecylamine, and 1-octadecene. The uniform alkyl-capped Ag(2)S QDs with a size of 10.2 nm emit near-IR emission at 1058 nm under 785 nm excitation.
