摘要
Semiconductor nanocrystals, known as "quantum dots" (QDs), have demonstrated several remarkable, attractive optoelectronic characteristics especially suited to analytical applications in the (bio)chemical field. We review progress in exploiting the attractive luminescent properties of QDs in designing novel probes for chemical and biochemical optical sensing. (C) 2005 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
