Colloidal nanocrystals are sometimes referred to as ‘artificial atoms’ because the density of their electronic states — which controls many physical properties — can be widely and easily tuned by ...

We describe devices in which optics and fluidics are used synergistically to synthesize novel functionalities. Fluidic replacement or modification leads to reconfigurable optical systems, whereas the ...

Researchers at NYU Tandon  reveal they have successfully used environmentally friendly quantum dots to detect infrared light without relying on mercury, lead, or other restricted materials, suggesting ...

Toxic metals are pushing infrared detector makers into a corner, but NYU Tandon researchers have developed a cleaner solution using colloidal quantum dots. These detectors are made like “inks,” ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Real-time tracking of the three-dimensional (3D) evolution of colloidal nanoparticles in solution is essential for understanding complex ...
