✦ Synopsis

Reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) is applied to analyze the particular stages of island formation during the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of pseudomorphical CdSe/ZnSe on GaAs(001) using an elevated substrate temperature of T S ΒΌ 400 C. Plan-view transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images verify the existence of islands. In-situ RHEED intensity and profile analysis reveal a two-dimensional (2D) mode at growth start. Islanding begins at a CdSe coverage of 1.8 ML. After exceeding a coverage of 2.5 ML, the process of islanding is accelerated dramatically. The experimental results are interpreted as a sequence of 2D growth, Stranski-Krastanow growth-mode and ripening according to an equilibrium model predicting the surface morphology of compressively strained heterosystems.

## Abstract CdSe nanoparticles were electrodeposited on mechanically strained gold, the latter achieved by controlled bending of gold films evaporated on mica. It is shown that the size and bandgap of the electrodeposited CdSe quantum dots (QDs) can be varied by applying mechanical strain to the Au

## Abstract We have designed a simple, one‐step synthesis of CdSe quantum dots with photoluminescence frequencies ranging from the red through to the violet region of the solar spectrum. The photoluminescence peaks have FWHM of 30Β nm indicating absorption over a narrow range of wavelengths. The eff
