3.1 Introduction
A significant challenge in current materials research is to develop advanced nanocrystals (NCs) and to use these as active components in a variety of miniaturized devices. Properties of NCs such as higher surface area due to smaller size and novel dimension-dependent properties support realizing attractive optical, electrical, and mechanical properties for potential applications [1–3]. Semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are one of the ...
