The demonstration of the quantum confinement effect in colloidal quantum dots (QDs) has been extensively studied and exploited mainly in Pb and Cd chalcogenide systems. There has been an urgent need recently for ...

Low cost, multinary colloidal quantum dots (QDs) based on environmentally friendly elements, with bright, narrow-width, tunable near-infrared (NIR) luminescence are promising alternatives to Cd and Pb chalcogenide QDs for ...
