Quantum dots – nanoparticles of semiconductors – were first theorized in the 1970s and then successfully synthesized in the early 1980s. When semiconductor particles are made small enough, they ...

A research team led by Professor Sun Qing-Feng in collaboration with Professor He Lin's research group from Beijing Normal ...

Quantum dots that are small and non-blinking offer new opportunities for dynamic single-molecule imaging in live cells. Fluorescent dyes and proteins have been invaluable for visualizing the ...

Quantum dots are tiny, man-made structures often called “artificial atoms” because they can trap and control electrons in ...

Quantum dots are crystals of a fluorescent semiconductor material with a diameter of as few as 10 to 100 atoms (2-10 nm). They are used as labels for imaging molecules because of their very narrow ...

However, newly published research from the University of Oklahoma proves that adding a covering to one of these light sources, called a colloidal quantum dot, can cause them to shine without ...

Farid writes: With quantum dots TVs (LCD-based or OLED) and their higher colour volume compared to non-quantum dots TV, are you meant to see those extra colors that the creators want you to see?
