quantum dots

Quantum dots are tiny semiconductor particles, typically just a few nanometers in size, that possess unique optical and electronic properties due to their small scale. When exposed to light, they can emit specific colors, which makes them useful in various applications like displays, solar cells, and medical imaging. Their size determines the color of light they emit, allowing for precise control over their behavior. Because of these properties, quantum dots are at the forefront of technology advancements, enhancing visual displays and potentially improving energy efficiency in solar panels and other electronic devices.
