Synthesis of Quantum Dots | SpringerLink
In order to synthesize Si quantum dots (QD), the crushed Si powder ( g) was mixed with (100 mL) DI water: (10 mL) HF solution followed by sonication for 2 h. The Si QD ( g) solution was then used for second electrophoresis with Cu electrodes by applying a voltage of 10 V for 60 s (Rangasamy et al. 2014 ).
