Quantum Dots..?

Semiconductors are the milestones of the electronic industry. traditional semiconductors such as Germanium and Silicon have their own limitations.they are not versatile and the chips constructed using semiconductors cannot be shrunk beyond limits.
Quantum Dots will be the futuristic semiconductors.these are essentially Nanocrystals with limitless applications.they are special class of nanocrystal semiconductors composed of group2-4, 3-5 or 6-4 combinations of material and they forms a unique class of nanaocrystal semiconductors.
Quantum Dots have a tunable emission pattern and they can be tuned to emit sharp visible or infrared wavelengths. They serve as a viable replacements for special inks, dyes, or paints in anticounterfieting applications.They are also ideal for manufacture of LEDs.
Quantum Dots derive their trademark from the technology of the future,Nanotechnology. their miniatuer size and versatile properties grant them the flexibility to be used for a variety of applications.
