What could be a better ligand in terms of colloidal stability for CZTS nanoparticles?

I use Oleylamine and Octadecene as the ligand to cap my CZTS@Ag core shell nanoparticles. However, I have found that after 2-3 wash (washing with ethanol and dispersing in toluene) the particle...

What are the possibilities for the formation of Ag2S (Silver sulfide) nanocrystals/nanoparticles instead of deposition of Ag+ ions on a CZTS NCs?

I have seen few reports for the binding of silver ions to sulfur and forming silver sulfide when depositing silver on a semiconductor nanocrystals such as CdS, PbS, CZTS. Why? What are the...

Do we know enough about the deposition of metal shells on the surface of semiconductor? Why is it hard to form a complete shell?

I have seen 'n' of papers talking about deposition of semiconductor shells on metal surfaces. However, there is a very limited literature about the deposition of metal shells on semiconductor...

Is it possible to determine the concentration of CZTS nanoparticles using the absorption spectra (UV-VIS)?

Usually, CZTS nanoparticles have a broad range of absorption extending to the edge of NIR region and I need to calculate the concentration of CZTS nanoparticles in the solution.

Why is it difficult to grow a perfect core shell nanostructures with semiconductor nanocrystals as cores and metal as shell?

I always get nucleation of metals onto the facets or on the defect sites or they just form separate islands. Any suggestions to achieve homogeneous nucleation?
