Abstracts

EN

CdS nanoparticles were successfully synthesized using starch, amylopectin and maltodextrin, as a capping agent. Optical properties of the final products have been investigated by photoluminescence spectroscopy and Raman scattering. The atomic force microscopy gave a particle of an average size of approximately 6 nm. Our research reveals that all prepared sugar-quantum dot aqueous solutions were stable against precipitation during the time of their investigation and kept their stability for several months after it.
