“…Over the last decade, the great potential of tetrazoles as stabilizing agents in the synthesis of colloidal semiconductor quantum dots has been demonstrated. [1,22] Quantum dots stabilized in this way possess superiorp roperties, such as strong photoluminescence, long term stability, compatibility with biological media, and the ability to assemble. Till now,m ainly thiols having short alkylenec hains with terminalh ydrophilicg roups (NH 2 Figure S6), which indicates an arrow size distribution of the NCs.…”
