The difference is the size of the particles. Quantum dots, suspended in liquid, absorb white light and then reemit it in a specific color that depends on the particle's size. Each quantum dot is ...

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 ...

Being able to precisely manipulate interacting spins in quantum systems is of key importance for the development of reliable ...

The M4 MacBook Pro models feature quantum dot display technology, according to display analyst Ross Young. Apple used a ...

Colloidal quantum dots are often referred to as artificial atoms, primarily because of their atom-like electron energy spectrum. Like atoms, they can form ordered structures that are commonly ...

QarboTech's carbon dots enhance photosynthesis by optimizing light absorption and electron transfer in plants' chloroplasts.

A new technique for growing quantum dots has not only found a new, more efficient way to build a useful type of quantum dot, but also opened up a whole group of novel chemical materials for future ...

With the successful development of this heavy-metal-free quantum dot-based photodetector, the researchers went further. They teamed up with Qurv, an ICFO spin-off, to demonstrate its potential by ...

Bottom image: Experimental traces of emission intensity from a conventional quantum dot (upper panel) and a novel asymmetrically compressed quantum dot (lower panel) resolved spectrally and ...

Quantum dots are among the more well-known nanocrystals, not only for their wide commercial uses but for the recent 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry given to the team that discovered them.

Quantum dots are nanoscale man-made crystals that have the ability to convert a spectrum of light into different colors. Each dot emits a different color depending on its size. (Image: RNGS ...
