Quantum Dots Catalyst Fuels

This book provides a detailed overview of recent advances in the captivating world of quantum dots and outlines some possible imminent new directions for this important field. The book presents, discusses and compares devices based on state-of-the-art structures, incipient material and new physical effects.

This book offers a comprehensive overview of ZnO-nano carbon core shell hybrid issues. There is significant interest in metal oxide/nanocarbon hybrid functional materials in the field of energy conversion and storage as electrode materials for supercapacitors, Li ion secondary battery, electrocatalysts for water splitting, and optoelectronic devices such as light emitting diodes and solar photovoltaic cells.

In this book, the interest is in taking advantage of the emission properties of quantum dots (QDs), which can be tuned by their size, resulting from quantum confinement. The book discusses the potential of QDs as contrast and therapeutic agents in the field of medicine.
