What is it about?
Quantum dots (QDs) or semiconductor nanocrystals are semiconductor particles a few nanometres in size with optical and electronic properties that differ from those of larger particles via quantum mechanical effects. QDs are excellent nanocrystals of prodigious attention to the domain of medical diagnosis and therapeutics. Further, the bioconjugation of QDs shows various unique and worthful optical characteristics which highlight the importance of QDs nanomaterials to be used for very prognosticating fluorescent probes.
