“…49,51 While more challenging to prepare than nanorods systems, CdSe@CdS tetrapods have been studied for stress-sensing, photovoltaic, and LED applications in recent years. 1,3,12,16,52 Particularly, the seminal work of Alivisatos and Chan have reported on the synthesis and spectroscopic characterization of CdSe@CdS TPs with 4.0 nm and 3.0 nm zincblende CdSe NC seeds, respectively, leading to applications in mechanical stress sensing and dual emission lightemitting diodes. 1,3,12,52 These studies pointed to the possibility of modulating energetics of CdSe@CdS TPs by variation of ZB CdSe NC size from 2-6 nm.…”
