Fabrication of CdS Nanoparticle Chains along DNA Double Strands

Abstract: Positively charged CdS nanoparticles having diameter of 3.0 ± 0.2 nm were prepared by the chemical modification of their surfaces with thiocholine. Chains of size-quantized CdS nanoparticles were prepared by using the electrostatic interaction between positively charged nanoparticle surfaces and the phosphate groups of DNA molecules. The observation by transmission electron microscopy revealed that the CdS nanoparticles were arranged in a quasi one dimension with dense packing. The line width of a nanoparticle… Show more

“…[176] Negatively charged ds-DNA molecules associated with the water/air interface of a solution that contained cationic surfactant molecules (dioleoyltrimethylammonium propane, 38; Figure 17). The layer at the interface was compressed by using the Langmuir-Blodgett technique to provide a highdensity packing of the DNA molecules.…”

“…Nanowires of Au, [3][4][5][6][7][8] Pt [9][10][11][12] and Pd, [13][14][15] binary semiconductors [16][17][18] and conducting polymers [19][20][21] have all been prepared using this method. The advantages of DNA as a template are: (i) it is a chemically robust material which can be obtained in high purity; (ii) single molecules of DNA many micrometres long are available and (iii) DNA composition and structure are well defined.…”

“…Indeed, synthetic approaches for CdTe [30][31][32] and CdS [30,[33][34][35][36][37][38] have utilized aqueous solvent conditions. However, these nanocrystals usually lack the quantum yield and narrow size distribution observed for TOPO-synthesized quantum dots.…”
