Due to unique properties of quantum dots, properties of cryogels can be engineered by adding quantum dots in. In this study, both p(HEMA)-based cryogel and CdSe QDs synthesized and characterized, separately. Then, CdSe QDs were loaded into p(HEMA) cryogels by immersing cryogel into QDs solutions. FTIR-ATR, SEM and TGA characterizations were performed to ensure that CdSe QDs penetrate p(HEMA) cryogels effectively. Dielectric properties of CdSe QDs-loaded cryogel were investigated using Electrical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS). Real and imaginary parts of dielectric constants were decreased significantly at low frequencies in QD-loaded cryogels. While real part of impedance was increased in CdSe QDs-loaded cryogel at low frequencies. In addition, at high frequencies, those parameters were observed to be same in both cases.en10.1016/j.mssp.2020.105269info:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessHEMA-Based cryogelCdSe quantum DotsPolymer compositesElectrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS)Agarose-Gelatin CryogelsOptical-PropertiesNanoparticlesSeparationEmissionArticle1192-s2.0-85087508329WOS:000562679400007Q1Q1
