title: Thiolated graphene--a new platform for anchoring CdSe quantum dots for hybrid heterostructures.
abstract: Effective organization of small CdSe quantum dots on graphene sheets has been achieved by a simple solution exchange with thiol terminated graphene prepared by diazonium salt chemistry. This generic methodology of CdSe QD attachment to any graphene surface has remarkable implications in designing hybrid heterostructures.
