A result based on the size of an object at nanometer scale. For example, the quantum dots used in display screens emit different colors based on their actual size. See quantum dot. THIS DEFINITION IS ...
The 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry has been awarded to Moungi Bawendi of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Louis Brus of Columbia University, and Alexei Ekimov of Nanocrystals Technology Inc. ...
(Nanowerk Spotlight) Dimensions typically refer to the measurable extent of height, width, and depth, defining an object's presence in physical space. However, in the weird and wonderful quantum world ...
The 2025 Nobel Prize in Physics has been awarded to John Clarke, Michel H. Devoret and John M. Martinis "for the discovery of macroscopic quantum mechanical tunnelling and energy quantisation in an ...
Colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) are semiconducting crystals. They exist on a nanometer scale (ca. 2–12 nm) and are coated with ligand/surfactant molecules to avoid agglomeration. Due to their size, CQDs ...
