摘要：

Highly luminescent, stable, and biocompatible 3C-SiC quantum dots (QDs) with no protective shells have been applied for fluorescence imaging of biological living cells. Structural and luminescent properties of the 3C-SiC QDs are described. Marking of the living cells with such QDs highlights the penetration, accumulation, and heterogeneous distribution of the QDs inside the intracellular space. (c) 2008 American Institue of Physics.
