Popis: Using the cation-exchange method, colloidal PbS nanoribbons are converted completely into CdS nanoribbons. This process expands the emission spectrum of the nanoribbons from infrared to visible. The morphology of nanoribbons remains the same after cation exchange, but the crystal structure changes from rock salt to zincblende. CdS nanoribbons exhibit blue band-edge photoluminescence under ultraviolet-light excitation. Cathodoluminescence spectroscopy of the CdS nanoribbons shows multicolor (blue, green, and red) emissions. Further time-resolved photoluminescence spectroscopy studies show that the lifetime of the midgap states is more than 2 orders of magnitude longer than that of the band-edge states.
