Zinc Selenide which show a potential application in electronic devices such as photovoltaic devices, light emitting devices and photodetector has been synthesized through a hydrothermal method. It has been found that the hydrothermal reaction conducted at 180 °C for 32 hours is optimum to produce NCr ZnSe, while the hydrothermal reaction at 150 °C for 8 hours is optimum for ZnSe QDs. Formation of ZnSe in nanocrystal (NCr) and quantum dots (QDs) using different source and different concentration ratio has been study in detail to optimize the production condition. The concentration effect of the precursor (ZnCl2/ Zn(O2CCH3)2(H2O)2) which varied from 0.25:1, 0.5:1, 1:1, 2:1, 3:1 until 4:1 has been explained in terms of its structured, morphology, composition and the optical behavior. The structural, morphology, compositional and optical properties of the nanocrystal and quantum dots were study using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy (FESEM), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), X-ray Fluorescence (XRF), UV-Vis NIR Spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and Photoluminescence (PL). The difference of NCr and QDs of ZnSe has been explored in detail through their structural properties, particle size, absorption and optical band gap (Eg) also emission peak. For NCr, the particle size is around 0.08 μm to 15.7 μm for both precursor (ZnCl2/ Zn(O2CCH3)2(H2O)2). The system structure is cubic structure (ZnCl2) and sphere structure (Zn(O2CCH3)2(H2O)2).

The optical behavior will show the difference between NCr and QDs sample, when the size is smaller the color emitted light will shift from red to blue shift while the optical band gap (Eg) will increase.
