Description
Summary:This paper addresses a number of major trends underlying the continuing effort to realize practical optoelectronic, electronic, and information-processing devices based on ensembles of quantum dots assembled in a variety of matrix materials. The great diversity of such structures makes it possible to fabricate numerous ensemble-based devices for applications underlying photoluminescent devices, light-emitting diodes, displays, photodetectors, photovoltaic devices, and solar cells. In addition, the application of colloidal quantum dots to allied technologies such as nanobiotechnology is considered for the case of monitoring conformational changes in biomolecules using luminescent quantum dots.
