Resumo

Various methods for the synthesis of quantum dots of compound semiconductors are discussed. Emphasis is placed on methods involving the decomposition of chalcogenide–containing precursors in tri–n–octylphosphine oxide. The use of simple coordination complexes can avoid the use of pyrophoric precursors. Approaches based on melts or the use of imino–bisdichalcogeno–diphosphinates are also discussed. These routes may be suitable for the production of large quantities of quantum dots.
