title: One-step aqueous synthesis of blue-emitting glutathione-capped ZnSe(1-x)Te(x) alloyed nanocrystals.
abstract: This work demonstrates a facile one-step aqueous synthesis of blue-emitting glutathione-capped ZnSe(1-x)Te(x) nanocrystals possessing photoluminescence quantum efficiencies of up to 20%. The incorporation of the NCs into a water dispersed polymer was performed in order to enhance their stability and processability resulting in transparent blue-emitting inorganic-organic composites.
