A Water-Free In Situ HF Treatment for Ultrabright InP Quantum Dots

species are present on the surface. These results show that both polyphosphate removal and z-type passivation are necessary to obtain high quantum yields in InP core-only quantum dots. They further show that core-only InP QDs can achieve photoluminescence quantum yields rivalling those of InP/ZnSe/ZnS core/shell/shell QDs and the best core-only II-VI QDs.
