Abstract
A new method of preparing CdS nanoparticles inside MCM-41 is described. Thi s method makes uses of the unique interfacial properties of selectively fun ctionalized ordered mesoporous materials to deliver cadmium ions inside the mesopores of MCM-41 via an ion-exchange reaction, thereby minimizing uncon trolled precipitation reactions of cadmium ions outside the mesopores. The general methodology can also be used to prepare other sulfide, telluride, a nd oxide nanoparticles.
