## Abstract Water‐soluble thioglycolic acid (TGA)‐capped CdTe quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized in aqueous medium, and then encapsulated in a silica nanosphere by copolymerization of the TGA‐capped CdTe conjugated with (3‐aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APS‐CdTe conjugate), free (3‐aminopropyl)triet
