Imagine building a Lego tower with perfectly aligned blocks. Each block represents an atom in a tiny crystal, known as a ...

A simple structural tweak has dramatically enhanced the colour clarity and stability of heavy metal-free blue quantum dots.

Photovoltaic (PV) solutions, which are designed to convert sunlight into electrical energy, are becoming increasingly ...

Argonne researchers have shown that they can use light to temporarily alter the crystal symmetry within lead sulfide quantum dots. This process reduces the off-centering of lead atoms and affects the ...

Researchers demonstrate orbital hybridization in graphene-based quantum dots, revealing how anisotropic confinement ...

Quantum dots are revolutionizing solar panels by enhancing efficiency and stability in perovskite solar cells. How QDs are ...

Researchers developed a laser system design featuring a liquid-state vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL). Instead ...

Quantum dots that are small and non-blinking offer new opportunities for dynamic single-molecule imaging in live cells. Fluorescent dyes and proteins have been invaluable for visualizing the ...

Monitors tend not to have picture processors; if they do, they’re pretty weak. To get a monitor looking as good as a TV, ...

Associate Professor Jia said the researchers achieved this by fine-tuning the structure of the quantum dots at an atomic level, reducing defects that can interfere with light emission.
