Popis: Single-step green synthesis of ZnSe quantum dots (QDs) from 1,2,3-selenadiazole and zinc acetate resulted in formation of high-quality mono-disperse ZnSe with engineered band-gap. The present method is a non-TOP green route where oleic acid is used as a surfactant. The size quantization effect can be monitored by UV–visible spectroscopy which shows in the range 370–387 nm (3.20–3.35 eV), a blue shift of about 70–90 nm with respect bulk ZnSe. Photoluminescence measurement revealed band-gap emission at ∼390 nm (3.18 eV, Stokes shift of
