What Is the Role of Quantum Dots in Optical Applications?
Quantum dots are semiconductor nanocrystals that exhibit unique optical properties due to quantum confinement. They have size-tunable emission spectra, high brightness, and photostability, making them ideal for applications in fluorescence imaging, light-emitting diodes (LEDs), and solar cells. Their ability to absorb and emit light at specific wavelengths is harnessed in various optoelectronic devices.
