The Biosynthesis of Infrared-Emitting Quantum Dots in Allium Fistulosum.
The development of simple routes to emissive solid-state materials is of paramount interest, and in this report we describe the biosynthesis of infrared emitting quantum dots in a living plant via a mutual antagonistic reaction. Exposure of common Allium fistulosum to mercury and tellurium salts under ambient conditions resulted in the expulsion of crystalline, non-passivated HgTe quantum dots ...
متن کاملInvestigation of the Effect of Recombination on Superluminescent Light-Emitting Diode Output Power Based on Nitride Pyramid Quantum Dots
In this article, the temperature behavior of output power of superluminescent light-emitting diode (SLED) by considering the effect of non-radiative recombination coefficient, non-radiative spontaneous emission coefficient and Auger recombination coefficients has been investigated. For this aim, GaN pyramidal quantum dots were used as the active region. The numerical method has been used to sol...
متن کاملComparative Studies of High Contrast Fluorescence Imaging Efficiency of Silica-coated CdSe Quantum Dots with Green and Red Emission
Herein we report the possibility of using green and red emitting silica-coated cadmium selenide (CdSe) quantum dots (QDs) for remarkable stem and cancer cellular imaging, efficient cellular uptake and fluorescence imaging of semi and ultra-thin sections of tumor for in vivo tumor targeted imaging applications. The comparative studies of high contrast cellular imaging behaviours of the silica-co...
متن کاملModeling of High Temperature GaN Quantum Dot Infrared Photodetectors
In this paper, we present calculations for different parameters of quantum dot infrared photodetectors. We considered a structure which includes quantum dots with large conduction-band-offset materials (GaN/AlGaN). Single band effective mass approximation has been applied in order to calculate the electronic structure. Throughout the modeling, we tried to consider the limiting factors which dec...
متن کاملNear-infrared quantum dots for HER2 localization and imaging of cancer cells
BACKGROUND Quantum dots are fluorescent nanoparticles with unique photophysical properties that allow them to be used as diagnostic, therapeutic, and theranostic agents, particularly in medical and surgical oncology. Near-infrared-emitting quantum dots can be visualized in deep tissues because the biological window is transparent to these wavelengths. Their small sizes and free surface reactive...
