چکیده
We demonstrate the feasibility of fabrication of semiconducting nanowires (quantum dots) using F-actin as a template. Three different approaches of assembling quantum dots into nanowires are described. The nanowires were characterized by fluorescence microscopy.

The material systems include GaAs/AlGaAs semiconductor heterostructures, semiconducting nanowires and carbon nanotubes. These materials have their own advantages that can be employed to engineer a spin-friendly environment. These include fabrication and electrical-control issues as well as the strength of the hyperfine interaction (i.e. presence or absence of nuclear spins) and the spinorbit in...
متن کاملFluorescence anisotropy imaging microscopy
We constructed an optical system and developed the software to create and analyze the fluorescence anisotropy images of a variety of objects including single molecules, quantum dots, proteins, nucleic acids and cells. The system includes an inverted microscope, three calcite prisms (CPs) inserted in the excitation and emission optical paths, and CCD camera. The system allows to record dynamic c...
متن کاملSomatostatin Decorated Quantum Dots Nanoparticles for Targeting of Somatostatin Receptors
Due to the unique optical properties like high brightness and narrow emission bands of Quantum dots, it is used as simple fluorescence materials in bio-imaging, immunoassays, microarrays, and other applications. To easy invistigate cell lines that overexpressed somtostatin receptors, somatostatin (SST) was conjugated with Quantum dots carrying PEG amine (Qdots-PEG-NH2). The conjugation of SST t...

متن کاملSynthesis and Optical Study of CdZnTe Quantum Dots
The comparison of growth processes and fluorescent properties of CdZnTe semiconductor quantum dots that are synthesized in different concentrations of Zn2+ in water are discussed in this paper. The samples are characterized through absorbtion (UV) and photoluminescence spectra (PL). The results show that when the reaction time is prolonged, the absorption peak and fluorescent emission peak pres...
