Quantum Dots: Emerging Materials For Versatile Applications (Woodhead Publishing Series In Electronic And Optical Materials)

Quantum Dots: Emerging Materials for Versatile Applications introduces the fundamentals and important advances of research of this important category of semiconductor nanostructured materials. Sections cover nanotechnology concepts, the unique properties of nanomaterials, fundamentals and definitions of primary classifications. A special emphasis is placed on practical considerations of the commercial translation of quantum dots such as their toxicity, stability and disposal. Characterization and synthesis strategies of quantum dots for displays and other key applications are touched on. In addition, the book reviews advances in research in emerging quantum dot materials (such as perovskites), along with innovations in materials design and fabrication methods. Finally, there is a discussion of the latest applications of quantum dots for optical, energy and sensing devices. This book is suitable for materials scientists and engineers in academia or industry R&D who are looking for an introduction to this research topic or for a key reference on the latest advances and applications. Introduces the primary classifications, properties, synthesis, characterization and fabrication strategies of quantum dots Reviews the latest applications of quantum dots for LEDs, displays, energy storage devices, photovoltaic cells, medicine, and more Discusses the practical barriers to commercial translation of quantum dots, including toxicity, stability, and their safe disposal
