By programming the synthetic reaction chemistry, stable blue emitting Cu(i) or Ag(i) doped Al(iii) co-doped ZnS (Al,Cu:ZnS or Al,Ag:ZnS) semiconductor nanocrystals are designed. Further, the photostability of the obtained intense blue-violet emission is studied, and the effects of doping/co-doping are correlated. Finally, it is revealed that the strong binding surface ligand 1-dodecanethiol and Al(iii) co-doping play pivotal roles in achieving such stable blue emitting doped nanocrystals.
