These tiny elements of nanotechnology, which are so miniature that their size dictates their properties, are today used in many useful and practical applications and have even been reported to direct surgeons as they tackle tricky tumor tissue.
By simply altering their size, quantum dots may emit light with various colors and wavelengths. This property is known as "quantum confinement” and works by precisely controlling the size of the quantum dots during their synthesis, allowing researchers to produce materials that emit light across the entire visible spectrum.
