Carbon dots are nanometer-scale carbon particles with photoluminescent properties, biocompatibility, and chemical stability. These characteristics support their use in areas such as bioimaging, drug ...
Researchers use microwave-assisted synthesis to create carbon dots from biomass, offering a fast, low-cost, and sustainable way to detect toxic heavy metals in the environment. Microwave-assisted ...
Carbon dots (CDs) are a kind of zero-dimensional carbonaceous nanomaterial. Due to their ultra-small size (usually less than 10 nm), simple synthesis, low toxicity, well-documented biocompatibility, ...
The 2023 Chemistry Nobel Prize has been awarded to Moungi G Bawendi, Louis E Brus, and Alexei I Ekimov for their discovery and synthesis of quantum dots. Quantum dots are nanoparticles with unique ...
The 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Moungi G. Bawendi, the Lester Wolfe Professor of Chemistry at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Louis E. Brus, the S. L. Mitchell ...
Three researchers who pioneered the study of “quantum dots” – tiny clusters of atoms that are important for a range of applications from television screens to renewable energy – have been awarded the ...
Quantum dots are composed of semiconducting materials like cadmium selenide (CdSe) or indium arsenide (InAs) and can be synthesized through various methods. For instance, colloidal synthesis and ...
The newly developed quantum dot material is expected to be used in various photoelectric devices, including next-generation displays such as AR/VR. Quantum dot synthesis of an Indium phosphide ...
Scientists Moungi Bawendi, Louis Brus and Alexei Ekimov won the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for "the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots," which illuminate computer monitors and television ...
