Exclusive: Quantum Dots, From Old Colorful Glass To The Technology Of Tomorrow

Summary by Ground News

At our level, things remain the same color no matter the size. But at nanoscales, size matters when it comes to color. Dr Alexey Ekimov, one of this year’s Nobel Prize winners in Chemistry, discovered that nanocrystals of different sizes give rise to different colors. Louis Brus was synthesizing crystals of cadmium sulfide, which can capture sunlight. He discovered that the different-sized crystals were reacting to light in different ways. This was the beginning of quantum dots, but it was Moungi Bawendi and his team who developed ways to make almost perfect nanocrystal.
