The Role of Solvent Environment on the Optical Behavior of Chemically Synthesized Silicon Nanoparticles

Silicon nanoparticles (Si-NPs) were prepared by solution-based chemical etching method. Optical characteristics of the as-prepared Si-NPs were investigated in different polar and nonpolar organic solvents. The emission and absorption properties of Si-NPs were tuned by altering the environment (solve...
