Such practice requires solving the nonlinear Poisson-Boltzmann equation (PBE). Unfortunately, explicit analytical solutions are available only for the weakly charged surfaces. Analysis of arbitrarily charged surfaces is possible only through cumbersome numerical computations. A compact analytical solution of the one-dimensional PBE is presented for two plates interacting in symmetrical electrolytes. The plates can have arbitrary surface potentials at infinite separation as long they have the same sign. Such a condition covers a majority of the colloidal systems encountered. The solution leads to a simple relationship which permits determination of surface potentials, surface charge densities, and electrostatic pressures as a function of plate separation H for different charging scenarios. An analytical expression is also presented for the potential profile between the plates for a given separation. Comparison of these potential profiles with those obtained by numerical analysis shows the validity of the proposed solution. © 2009 Elsevier Inc.

The synthesis is achieved exactly in one-step, one-pot and at low temperature, by applying the two-phase thermal approach. The optical and structural properties of the nanoalloys were characterized by various techniques. Photoluminescence of the nanoalloys is tunable from 435 to 545 nm by either the size or the composition of the nanoalloys. Highly luminescent nanoalloys having quantum yields up to 90% were prepared. The hydrodynamic size of the nanoalloys can be varied from 1.4 to 10.0 nm by the reaction time. DLS measurements showed that the size distribution of the nanoalloys is monodispersed. TEM images confirmed the size and the size distribution of the nanoalloys. The sulfur fraction in the nanoalloy composition, measured by XRD and verified by EDX, is modulated from 0.17 to 0.95 by increasing the amount of thiourea in the chalcogenide mixture. The sulfur-rich nanoalloys are formed when the initial mole ratio of the chalcogenide (S : Se) is equal or higher than eleven-fold. The gradient and homogeneous internal structures are revealed by analysis of the alloy composition as a function of the growth time. We propose that the two-phase approach, a non-injection technique, is a facile and versatile method to develop highly luminescent CdSxSe1 x nanoalloys without an inorganic coating layer.
