Enhancement of optical properties of photosensitizers by additional light-harvesting
antennas is promising for the improvement of the photodynamic therapy. However, large …

Herein, we evaluated the toxic effects of mercaptoacetic acid (MAA)-CdSe quantum dots
(QDs), MAA-CdSe/ZnS QDs and cysteamine (CA)-CdSe/ZnS QDs on the growth of both …

The surface characterization of CdTe QDs synthesized by a novel procedure using
glutathione (GSH), low temperatures (60–90° C) and K2TeO3 as the–Te precursor is …

This report presents the results of spectroscopic measurements of colloidal ZnO
nanoparticles synthesized in various alcohols. Luminescence of colloidal ZnO was …

We have optimized a synthetic method for the preparation of water soluble CdTe quantum
dots (QDs), capped with glutathione (GSH) molecules, chemically bound to the nanoparticle …

Fluorescence imaging technique has been used for imaging of biological cells and tissues
in vivo. The Cd-free luminescent quantum dots conjugating with a cancer targeting ligand …

Cadmium selenide quantum dots (CdSe QDs) were synthesized in aqueous phase by the
freezing temperature injection technique using different capping agents (viz. thioglycolic …

Despite their importance in nano-environmental health and safety, interactions between
engineered nanomaterials and microbial life remain poorly characterized. Here, we used the …

The relaxation dynamics of photoexcited carriers in water-soluble, penicillamine-capped,
optically active and luminescent chiral CdSe quantum dots (QDs) were investigated. Three …

CdTe quantum dots (QDs) are widely used in bio‐applications due to their size and highly
efficient optical properties. However internalization mechanisms thereof for the variety of …
