Optically active semiconductor quantum dots have high confinement potential, enabling them to interact strongly with light and hold electrons and holes.
In an article recently published in the journal Applied Surface Science, researchers discussed the utility of carbon quantum dots doped with silver as a lubricating oil to improve tribological performance at various temperatures.
In an article recently published in the journal Colloids and Surfaces A: Physicochemical and Engineering Aspects, researchers discussed the Dohelert design (DOE)-based green synthesis optimization of graphene quantum dots (GQDs) for dye photodegradation application.
