Synthesis of doped semiconductor nanostructures using microemulsions and liquid crystals as templates

Semiconductor nanocrystals, also known as quantum dots (QDs), are a relatively new class of materials with unique size-dependent optical properties that enable the use of these materials in a variety of applications, including fluorescent labels for biomolecules, illumination and display technologie...
