  2. Fluorescence intermittency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence_intermittency

    Fluorescence intermittency, or blinking, is the phenomenon of random switching between ON (bright) and OFF (dark) states of the emitter under its continuous excitation. It is a common property of the nanoscale emitters (molecular fluorophores , colloidal quantum dots ) related to the competition between the radiative and non-radiative ...

  3. Quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_dot

    Splitting of energy levels for small quantum dots due to the quantum confinement effect. The horizontal axis is the radius, or the size, of the quantum dots and a b * is the exciton's Bohr radius. Band gap energy The band gap can become smaller in the strong confinement regime as the energy levels split up. The exciton Bohr radius can be ...

  4. 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.

  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. Cadmium-free quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cadmium-free_quantum_dot

    Fabrication of the quantum dot LED involved a blue chip as a blue light source and a silicon resin containing the quantum dots on top of the chip creating the sample, with good results obtained from the experiment. [23] Silicon A third type of quantum dot that does not contain heavy metals is the silicon quantum dot.

  7. Silicon quantum dot - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silicon_quantum_dot

    Silicon quantum dots are metal-free biologically compatible quantum dots with photoluminescence emission maxima that are tunable through the visible to near-infrared spectral regions. These quantum dots have unique properties arising from their indirect band gap , including long-lived luminescent excited-states and large Stokes shifts .

  9. Core–shell semiconductor nanocrystal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core–shell_semiconductor...

    Quantum dots are popular alternatives to organic dyes as fluorescent labels for biological imaging and sensing due to their small size, tuneable emission, and photostability. The luminescent properties of quantum dots arise from exciton decay (recombination of electron hole pairs) which can proceed through a radiative or nonradiative pathway.
