A new Se precursor, SeTDE--selenium dissolved in 1-tetradecene (TDE), was developed for the non-injection synthesis of selenide-containing nanomaterials.  Monodisperse MnSe, PbSe, and ZnSe nanocrystals were synthesized using the respective metal chlorides with oleylamine as metal precursors and SeTDE as Se precursor.  PbSe quantum dots and graphene oxide nanocomposites were also fabricated by a one-pot approach using SeTDE as the Se precursor.
