Halogen ions (I−, Br−, Cl−) were added into a colloidal solution of CdSe and PbS quantum dots (QDs) to form QDs capped with these inorganic ligands. Halogen ions attached to QDs through electrostatic interactions and the varying coordination strength between the inorganic ligands and QDs led to different degrees of redispersion and stabilization in polar solvents. Moreover, we successfully conducted electrophoretic deposition (EPD) of QDs capped with inorganic ligands. Negatively charged QDs were adsorbed onto a positively charged TiO2 anode. The assembled QDs films were used in photovoltaic devices and offered better efficiency than QDs capped with organic ligands. This work demonstrates that halogen ions are indeed promising ligands to improve the stability of QDs with inorganic ligands and the EPD method shows prospects in assembling QDs films for practical applications.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
