  2. DNA-functionalized quantum dots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../DNA-Functionalized_Quantum_Dots

    Quantum dots are commonly used for imaging biological systems in vitro and in vivo in animal studies due to their excellent optical properties when excited by light, while DNA has numerous bioengineering applications, including: genetic engineering, self-assembling nanostructures, protein binding, and biomarkers. The ability to visualize the ...

  3. Cadmium-free quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadmium-free_quantum_dot

    These silicon quantum dots can be used in numerous situations which include photochemical and biological applications such as the use of silicon layers for photovoltaic applications. [24] In an experiment using silicon quantum dots near the interface of the substrate and the quantum dots, the power conversion efficiency of the solar cell increased.

  4. Quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_dot

    Quantum dot manufacturing relies on a process called high temperature dual injection which has been scaled by multiple companies for commercial applications that require large quantities (hundreds of kilograms to tons) of quantum dots. This reproducible production method can be applied to a wide range of quantum dot sizes and compositions.

  5. Quantum biology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_biology

    Quantum biology is the study of applications of quantum mechanics and theoretical chemistry to aspects of biology that cannot be accurately described by the classical laws of physics. [1] An understanding of fundamental quantum interactions is important because they determine the properties of the next level of organization in biological systems.

  6. Hydrogel encapsulation of quantum dots - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogel_encapsulation_of...

    Quantum dots (QDs) are nano-scale semiconductor particles on the order of 2–10 nm in diameter. They possess electrical properties between those of bulk semi-conductors and individual molecules, as well as optical characteristics that make them suitable for applications where fluorescence is desirable, such as medical imaging.

  7. Graphene quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Graphene_quantum_dot

    Graphene quantum dots (GQDs) are graphene nanoparticles with a size less than 100 nm. [1] Due to their exceptional properties such as low toxicity, stable photoluminescence , chemical stability and pronounced quantum confinement effect, GQDs are considered as a novel material for biological, opto-electronics, energy and environmental applications.
