Application

Cesium bromide can be used as starting material to prepare:

  • Thermal neutron imaging plates.
  • Lead-free CsBr: Eu2+ nanocrystals for fabricating white LEDs.
It can also be used as an additive to prepare CsI-based scintillators. Alloying with cesium bromide increases the yield limit and microhardness of CsI crystals.

Methods of Synthesizing Monodisperse Colloidal Quantum Dots

Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are semiconducting crystals of only a few nanometers (ca. 2–12 nm) coated with ligand/surfactant molecules to help prevent agglomeration.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
