Structural, elemental, crystalline and optical characterization of the as synthesized copper telluride NCs.
(a,b) Representative TEM images depicting the cuboid morphology of the NCs (c). HR-TEM image exhibiting the crystal lattice distance, (d). SEM image of the NCs, (e). EDS analysis of the NCs confirming the presence of Cu and Te, without any other elemental impurities. (f) XRD analysis of the NCs confirming that the crystal phases of the synthesized NCs depicts the rickardite crystalline pattern (JCPDS 01-089-2127) and (g). UV-Vis-NIR absorption spectra of bare and PEGylated NCs displaying a clear NIR absorption onset.
