Conclusion
Unique synthesis of core-shell nanocrystals, with improved quantum yield, and optical tunability in the IR spectral regime. Utilization of core-shell NCs as passive Q-switch in eye- safe lasers.

• Electric field inside a NC is given by E≈V/(εmL)=7.0×103V/m; εm=ε1+4√2π/(ε2-ε1) [½r/(r+D)]3 is the volume-weighted average of the dielectric constants for the TOPO capping and for the PbSe NCs;
• The resistance, R, over a TOPO coated NC is about 18 kΩ;• The self-capacitance of an isolated NC, C=4πε0εm(r +D)=1.5x10-18 Farad; • The lifetime of an electron sited on a certain NC: τ=RC; The energy associated
with its transfer to a neighboring NC: ET=πħ/τ=76 meV. • Intra-band spacing (~100 meV) > ET; • Conductivity of a typical PbSe wire-like assembly: σ ~7.0 Ω-1cm-1.

Transfer of CdTe Q-dots from organic phase to aqueous phase:
1Synthesis of CdTe Q-dots –
The particles are being synthesized in ODE-octadecen H2C=CH-(CH2)15-Me (the solvent).Stabilizers that we use during the reaction –ODPA – n- octadecylphosphonic acid . CH3(CH2)17P(O)(OH)2TDPA- n – tetradecylphosphonic asid CH3(CH2)13P(O)(OH)2Those particles are being stored in their original medium in the glove box.
2Phase transfer –
0.5 ml of CdTe (TDPA/ODE) particles dissolved in 5 ml chloroform . Addition of few drops of TGA solution till we see precipitation .Addition of 1-2 ml of water.After shaking we see that the particles are transferred to the upper phase (the water). TGA – Thioglycolic acid . HO-C(=O)(CH2)-SHPreparation of TGA solution – 1.8 gr of KOH dissolved in 10ml of methanol + 0.5 ml of TGA .
TGA replaces the ODPA/TDPA on the surface of nano-particles. It makes negatively charged organic shell on the surface, which pulls the particles from the organic molecules (not charged ) in to polar solvent ( water).
The water particles are more florescent than those in organic medium.
