A semiconductor quantum dot comprises a core and a M2C2 shell. Said core includes a M1C1 seed, a M1C1 core layer grown on said M1C1 seed, and a barrier layer grown on said M1C1 core layer. A surface of said M1C1 seed has a plurality of first areas that is inactive with oxygen, and a plurality of second areas that is easily reactive with oxygen. Said M1C1 core layer has a plurality of first regions located on corresponding to each of the first area of the M1C1 seed, and a plurality of second regions located on corresponding to each of the second area of the M1C1 seed. A thickness of each of said first regions is greater than that of each of said second regions. Said barrier is made from M1X1 or X2C1. Said M2C2 shell grows on said barrier layer of said core. M1 is at least one of the III group elements selected from the group consisting of Al, Ga, and In. C1 is at least one of the V group elements selected from the group consisting of P, and As. X1 is one of the element selected from the group consisting of N, As, S, Se, Te, F, Cl, Br, and I. X2 is one of the element selected from the group consisting of Na, K, Cs, Mg, Cu, Zn, Cd, Hg, Al, Ga, and Pb. M2 is at least one of the II group elements selected from the group consisting of Zn, and Cd. C2 is at least one of the VI group elements selected from the group consisting of S, Se, O, and Te. |
