in this work, we report, optical properties of cd1-xsnxte quantum dots (x= 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15) synthesized in water using thioglycolic acid (tga) as a modifier agent. the optical characterization of the samples was performed through absorption (uv) and photoluminescence spectra (pl). a red shift absorption and fluorescent emission peaks was observed which can be related to the increase of nano...
