Researchers at North Carolina State University have demonstrated a new technique that uses light to tune the optical ...

CdTe Quantum Dots, or cadmium telluride quantum dots, are a type of semiconductor nanocrystals that have gained significant attention due to their unique optical and electronic characteristics. These ...

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 ...

Colloidal quantum dots are solution-based nanocrystals prized for their unique light-harvesting abilities. They can illuminate, create color, harness solar energy and function as semiconductors. These ...

Quantum dots are widely used for their ability to emit single photons at specific wavelengths. These photons are created by ...

Bioluminescence is widely used for in vivo imaging of nude mice. By conjugating luciferase protein to quantum dots, bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) turns these useful fluorophores ...

They created electronic light sensors that use water's molecular properties to enhance the performance of quantum dots. This approach solves a key problem that has limited quantum dot devices – the ...

Thomas, Virginia N. Ciriano-Tejel and their colleagues wrote in their paper. "Spin qubits in silicon quantum dots can potentially address these challenges given their control fidelities and ...
