We describe the synthesis of water-soluble semiconductor nanoparticles and discuss and characterize their properties. Hydrophobic CdSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals with a core si...
Bioactivation and Cell Targeting of Semiconductor CdSe/ZnS Nanocrystals with Phytochelatin-Related Peptides
Synthetic phytochelatin-related peptides are used as an organic coat on the surface of colloidal CdSe/ZnS semiconductor nanocrystals synthesized from hydrophobic coordinating tr...
Properties of Fluorescent Semiconductor Nanocrystals and their Application to Biological Labeling
We review recent advances in the development of colloidal fluorescent semiconductor nanocrystals (a class of quantum dots) for biological labeling. Although some of the photophy...
Time-gated biological imaging by use of colloidal quantum dots
The long (but not too long) fluorescence lifetime of CdSe semiconductor quantum dots was exploited to enhance fluorescence biological imaging contrast and sensitivity by time-ga...
Ultrahigh-resolution multicolor colocalization of single fluorescent probes
An optical ruler based on ultrahigh-resolution colocalization of single fluorescent probes is described in this paper. It relies on the use of two unique families of fluorophore...
The Power and Prospects of Fluorescence Microscopies and Spectroscopies
▪ Abstract Recent years have witnessed a renaissance of fluorescence microscopy techniques and applications, from live-animal multiphoton confocal microscopy to single-molecule ...
