Super-resolution imaging techniques that overcome the diffraction limit of light have gained
wide popularity for visualizing cellular structures with nanometric resolution. Following the …

This article offers a materials‐chemistry perspective for colloidal quantum dots (QDs) in the
field of display, including QD‐enhanced liquid‐crystal‐display (QD‐LCD) and QD‐based …

Chemically made colloidal semiconductor quantum dots have long been proposed as
scalable and color-tunable single emitters in quantum optics, but they have typically suffered …

In this paper, we review recent progress on colloidal growth of 2D nanocrystals. We identify
the four main sources of anisotropy which lead to the formation of plate-and sheet-like …

In this review we present new concepts and recent progress in the application of
semiconductor quantum dots (QD) as labels in two important areas of biology, bioimaging …

Luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals or quantum dots (QDs) provide exquisite electro-
optical properties that are ideal for biological sensing applications. Unlike traditional …

The large losses of plasmonic nanocavities, orders of magnitude beyond those of photonic
dielectric cavities, places them, perhaps surprisingly, as exceptional enhancers of single …

Nanomaterials exhibit structural and functional heterogeneity among individual
nanoparticles, thus requiring a capability to study single nanoparticles. While electron …

Colloidal nanocrystals have been intensively studied over the past three decades due to
their unique properties that originate, in large part, from their nanometer‐scale sizes. For …

The complementary optical properties of surface plasmon excitations of metal
nanostructures and long-lived excitations of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) make them …
