Furthermore, novel strategies to engineer safer QDs are still under exploration by the scientific community. A recent novelty in the field is the discovery of carbon quantum dots, a new generation of optically active nanoparticles potentially capable of replacing semiconductor QDs, but with the advantage of much lower toxicity.
Louis Eugene Brus[1] (born August 10, 1943) [2] is an American chemist, and currently the Samuel Latham Mitchell Professor of Chemistry at Columbia University. He is the co-discoverer of the colloidal semi-conductor nanocrystals known as quantum dots. [3] In 2023, he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Nanocrystalline material. Science portal. Technology portal. v. t. e. Carbon quantum dots also commonly called carbon nano dots or simply carbon dots (abbreviated as CQDs, C-dots or CDs) are carbon nanoparticles which are less than 10 nm in size and have some form of surface passivation. [1][2][3]
Alexey Ekimov or Aleksey Yekimov[1] (Russian: Алексей Екимов; born 1945) is a Russian [2] solid state physicist and a pioneer in nanomaterials research. He discovered the semiconductor nanocrystals known as quantum dots in 1981, while working at the Vavilov State Optical Institute. [3][4][5] In 2023, he was awarded the Nobel Prize ...
The 2023 Nobel Prize in chemistry has been awarded to a trio of scientists who worked to discover and develop quantum dots, used in LED lights and TV screens, as well as by surgeons when removing ...
He coined the term quantum dots, [4] for demonstrating the first zero-dimensional electronic device that had fully quantized energy states. Reed did research in electronic transport in nanoscale and mesoscopic systems, artificially structured materials and devices, molecular electronics, biosensors and bioelectronic systems, and nanofluidics.
