2-D Quantum Dots

Two-dimensional quantum dots are extremely tiny semiconductor particles, just nanometers in size, that confine electrons in a very thin, flat layer—only two dimensions thick. This confinement leads to unique electronic and optical properties, such as specific light absorption and emission behaviors, which can be precisely tuned by changing the dot’s size or shape. Due to their unique properties, 2D quantum dots are promising for advanced applications like ultra-efficient solar cells, highly sensitive sensors, and next-generation display technologies. Their ultra-thin nature also allows for integration into flexible or transparent devices, broadening their practical use in modern electronics.
