About

    Quantum dots are tiny semiconductor particles, typically ranging in size from 2 to 10 nanometers. These particles exhibit unique optical and electrical properties due to their size and composition, making them potentially useful for a variety of applications in electronic and optical devices. Quantum dots can be used in fields such as electronics, photovoltaics, sensors, and medicine. They can be engineered to emit specific wavelengths of light, making them useful for applications such as LED displays and biological imaging. Quantum dots also have potential in quantum computing, as their properties can be manipulated to store and process information in a quantum-mechanical manner. Overall, quantum dots represent a promising area of research with potential applications in a wide range of technologies.
