Abstract
A method of manufacturing a nitride nanoparticle comprises manufacturing the nitride nanostructure from constituents including: a material containing metal, silicon or boron, a material containing nitrogen, and a capping agent having an electron-accepting group for increasing the quantum yield of the nitride nanostructure. Nitride nanoparticles, for example nitride nanocrystals, having a photoluminescence quantum yield of at least 1%, and up to 20% or greater, may be obtained.
