Dear colleagues,

Quantum dots such as semiconductor nanocrystals emerge recently as an
interesting novel class of material with exciting optical and electronic
properties. Moreover, they offer a wide range of promising applications
in optoelectronic devices and bio-labels for affinity studies.

Many challenges remain in the research and development of quantum dots,
e.g., the reproducible tuning of their emission properties, their
chemical inertness, and their long-term stability need to be optimized.
The concepts of stabilizing and functionalizing quantum dots by an
organic/polymeric ligand shell are far from being successfully
implemented.

Can you consider pointing out recent articles and reviews written in the
domain of "nanocrystals embedded polymer", particularly in nonlinear
optical polymers? In addition, we are also for commercial suppliers of
nanocrystal quantum dots. Any comments leading us in the right direction
will be most appreciated. Thank you in advance for your help.

 

All the best,

Professor Eric Kong
