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

This work demonstrates a novel method of manipulating the QDs’ optical properties beyond controlling their size, composition ...

A moiré pattern appears when you stack and rotate two copies of an image with regularly repeating shapes, turning simple ...

A team of engineers, chemists and materials scientists in China and the U.S. has found a material that can be used to ...

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 ...
