摘要
The competition between dimensional and domain effects for the packing of amphiphilic passivants on CdSe quantum dot (QD) surfaces is examined using temperature-dependent attenuated total reflection infrared spectroscopy. The results indicate that at very small particle sizes (r < 22 Angstrom) disordered packing of the organic passivant arises due to the lack of an available thermodynamically stable packing domain for the passivant on the QD facets. At particle sizes r > 22 Angstrom, a stable chain domain can be established where the chain packing thermodynamics is governed by purely dimensional effects related to the ratio of the chain length (<L>) to the particle radius (r). Using a mean field statistical mechanical calculation, we find the theoretical calculations predict the observed <L>/r passivant layer stabilization for QD systems.
