Abstract

Highly crystalline, doped polythiophene is grown from the surfaces of CdTe quantum dots by ligand exchange of 3-thenoic acid followed by an oxidant-initiated polymerization. The facile synthesis generates a composite of highly ordered fibers, which exhibit efficient charge transfer between the polythiophene and the inorganic CdTe quantum dots.<br /> (Copyright © 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
