Luminescent manganese-doped CsPbCl3 perovskite quantum dots

Luminescent manganese-doped CsPbCl3 perovskite quantum dots

Nanocrystalline cesium lead halide perovskites (CsPbX3, X = Cl, Br, and I) form an exciting new class of semiconductor materials showing quantum confinement. The emission color can be tuned over the full visible spectral region making them promising for light‒emitting applications. Further control over the optical and magnetic properties of quantum dots (QDs) can be achieved through doping of t...

Magnetic Behavior of Manganese-Doped ZnSe Quantum Dots

Biosensing with Luminescent Semiconductor Quantum Dots

Luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) are a recently developed class of nanomaterial whose unique photophysical properties are helping to create a new generation of robust fluorescent biosensors. QD properties of interest for biosensing include high quantum yields, broad absorption spectra coupled to narrow sizetunable photoluminescent emissions and exceptional resistance...

Design of Biotin-Functionalized Luminescent Quantum Dots

We report the design and synthesis of a tetraethylene glycol- (TEG-) based bidentate ligand functionalized with dihydrolipoic acid (DHLA) and biotin (DHLA-TEG-biotin) to promote biocompatibility of luminescent quantum dots (QD's). This new ligand readily binds to CdSe-ZnS core-shell QDs via surface ligand exchange. QDs capped with a mixture of DHLA and DHLA-TEG-biotin or polyethylene glycol- (P...

ZnS Cu-doped quantum dots

The paper presents a survey of literature on the structure and optical properties of ZnS and copper ion-doped ZnS quantum dots. The effect of other metal dopants on the spectral properties of ZnS:Cu quantum dots was also considered. The influence of such parameters as dopant concentration, temperature of the synthesis and compounds which form or modify the additional layer on dots on spectral p...
