High-yield green fabrication of colloidal silicon quantum dots by low-temperature thermal cracking of porous silicon

We developed high-yield green fabrication of colloidal silicon quantum dots (QDs) only by low-temperature treatment of porous silicon (PSi) flakes in a reactive organic solution. Heat treatment at ∼50 °C of the PSi flakes in unsaturated hydrocarbon solution mixed with hydrofluoric acid (HF) yields t...
