This study aimed to answer the question as whether crystal defects at the surface of soluble capped CdSe nanocrystals (or quantum dots, QDs) in water colloidal suspension are involved in the mechanism of fluorescence quenching induced by metal cations. Nanocrystals of CdSe were synthesized by an aqueous protocol, varying the ratio between the CdSe precursors and the grafted ligand mercaptosuccinic acid (MSA). Changing the MSA/CdSe ratio during synthesis impacts the crystal nucleation growth, which plays an important role in surface
