Abstract: A green synthetic route is reported for quickly synthesis of highly luminescent CdTe-Mn/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) in aqueous solution. Glutathione (GSH) was used as capping reagent and thioacetamide (TAA) as sulfur source for growth of ZnS shell on the CdTe-Mn QDs. At the optimum reaction conditions, the results indicate that the GSH-capped CdTe-Mn/ZnS QDs exhibit high fluorescence QYs and the best QY is 58%. These GSH-capped core-shell QDs exhibit excellent colloidal and photostability. This method is simple and environmentally friendly.

Abstract: In this paper, a system polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) were synthesized by nitroxide-medium controllable free radical polymerization. PS-b-P4VP were characterized by 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), infrared spectrum (FTIR) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). The results have indicated that diblock copolymers can be prepared and with molecular polydispersities in the range of 1.08 to 1.31. The structure of diblock was showed by 1H-nuclear magnetic resonance.

Abstract: a system of polystyrene and polystyrene-block-poly(4-vinylpyridine) (PS-b-P4VP) were synthesized by using living free radical in the presence of 4-hydroxyl-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperridine-oxyl-1(HTEMPO•) and (BPO). The polystyrene and diblock copolymers were characterized by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) and atomic force microscope (AFM). The results suggested that the polymerization of styrene in the presence of 4-hydroxyl-2, 2, 6, 6-tetramethylpiperridine-oxyl-1(HTEMPO•) and benzoyl peroxide (BPO) can be prepared with molecular weight distribution in the range of 1.15 to 1.25. The polystyrene with living groups can continuously initiate the living free radical polymerization of 4-Vinylpyridine to form the polystyrene-block-poly (4-vinylpyridine) with molecular weight distribution in the range of 1.08 to 1.35. The AFM of diblock indicated the diblock copolymer（PS-b-P4VP） is a good compatibilizer for PS and P4VP.
