OVERVIEW
Preparative methods derived from inorganic and
organometallic
chemistry enable the size-selective synthesis of
colloidal
semiconductor
nanocrystals.
Their optical properties depend on the material
and can be adjusted with the nanocrystal size via
quantum
confinement.
As nanometric light emitters they can be used
in biological labeling, as light absorbers and electron conductors in
hybrid organic/inorganic solar cells.
