▲ [16a-C301-5] [JSAP-OSA Joint Symposia 2016 Invited Talk] The quantum dot spectrometer--Exploiting the limitless number of colors of QDs
Keywords:quantum dot, miniaturized spectrometer, sensor
Speaking of quantum dots, the first thing that comes to mind is probably their most distinctive and characteristic property-that their band gaps, thus colors, can be continuously and finely tuned over a wide range. This property gives rise to a large pool of countless number of materials, which all share very similar natures and properties. In this speech, I will talk about how such a unique property is being exploited by the invention of the quantum dot spectrometer, and how we envision a ubiquitous sensing toolbox emerging out from a nano dot.
