From Flasks to Applications: Combinatorial Chemistry and Scale-up of High-Performance Complex Nanomaterials using Automated Synthesis

Hanson C.J., Jeffrey S., Hu Z., Htoon H., Hollingsworth J., Los Alamos National Laboratory, US

Semiconducting nanocrystals, also known as quantum dots (QDs), that emit light with near-unity quantum yield and that are extremely photostable are attractive options as down-conversion and direct electricity-to-light materials for a variety of applications, including [...]

Nano-engineering Core/Shell Quantum Dots for Ultimate Utility in Light-emission Applications

Htoon H., Hollingsworth J.A., Los Alamos National Laboratory, US

Quantum-confinement effects have been used for decades to tune semiconductor opto-electronic properties. More recently, particle-size control as the primary means for properties control has been succeeded by nanoscale hetero-structuring. In this case, the nanosized particle [...]
