Cadmium Selenide Quantum Dots

Cadmium Selenide Quantum Dots (CdSe QDs) are tiny particles made from cadmium and selenium, typically measuring just a few nanometers in size. They have unique optical properties that allow them to emit specific colors of light when exposed to light or electricity. This makes them valuable in various applications, including displays, solar cells, and medical imaging. Their size and composition can be tuned to produce different colors, leading to vibrant, high-quality images in technology. However, due to the toxicity of cadmium, their use is carefully regulated.
