Figure 2

(A) TEM, (B) HRTEM images and (C) size histogram of AIS core only. (D) XRD of AIS core and AIS@ZnS core-shell. (E) TEM, (F) HRTEM images and (G) size histogram of core-shell QDs. These images and XRD are for 1:4 (Ag:In) ratio samples. (H and I) are FESEM images of AIS and AIS@ZnS QDs, respectively. (J) Zeta potential distribution plot of core and core-shell quantum dots with different ratio of Ag:In.
