Electron Irradiation Effects on Nanocrystal Quantum Dots Used in Bio-Sensing Applications

Effects of electron irradiation on some of the optical properties in organic CdSe nanocrystals coated in trioctylphosphine oxide (TOPO) and biologically compatible CdSe nanocrystals coated in mercaptoacetic acid, as CdSe as CdSe nanocrystals conjugated with the protein are investigated using the technique of cathodoluminescence. Effects of varying the beam energy and temperatures were examined and faster degradation at cryogenic temperatures and higher beam energies was found under some conditions.
