Abstract:
Semiconductor structures having a nanocrystalline core and corresponding nanocrystalline shell and insulator coating, wherein the semiconductor structure includes an anisotropic nanocrystalline core composed of a first semiconductor material, and an anisotropic nanocrystalline shell composed of a second, different, semiconductor material surrounding the anisotropic nanocrystalline core. The anisotropic nanocrystalline core and the anisotropic nanocrystalline shell form a quantum dot. An insulator layer encapsulates the nanocrystalline shell and anisotropic nanocrystalline core.

Claim (Index 15):
The method of  claim 14 , wherein ligand-functionalizing the outer surface of the insulator layer comprises treating the semiconductor structure with a ligand selected from the group consisting of mono-, di-, or tri-alkoxysilanes with three, two or one inert or organofunctional substituents of the general formula (R 1 O) 3 SiR 2 ; (R 1 O) 2 SiR 2 R 3 ; (R 1 O) SiR 2 R 3 R 4 , where R 1  is methyl, ethyl, propyl, isopropyl, or butyl, R 2 , R 3  and R 4  are identical or different and are H substituents, alkyls, alkenes, alkynes, aryls, halogeno-derivates, alcohols, (mono, di, tri, poly) ethyleneglycols, (secondary, tertiary, quaternary) amines, diamines, polyamines, azides, isocyanates, acrylates, metacrylates, epoxies, ethers, aldehydes, carboxylates, esters, anhydrides, phosphates, phosphines, mercaptos, thiols, sulfonates, and are linear or cyclic, a silane with the general structure (R 1 O) 3 Si\u2014(CH 2 ) n \u2014R\u2014(CH 2 ) n \u2014Si(RO) 3  where R and R 1  is H or an organic substituent selected from the group consisting of alkyls, alkenes, alkynes, aryls, halogeno-derivates, alcohols, (mono, di, tri, poly) ethyleneglycols, (secondary, tertiary, quaternary) amines, diamines, polyamines, azides, isocyanates, acrylates, metacrylates, epoxies, ethers, aldehydes, carboxylates, esters, anhydrides, phosphates, phosphines, mercaptos, thiols, sulfonates, and are linear or cyclic, a chlorosilane, and an azasilane.
