CdSeS nanocrystals with different bandgap energies have been synthesized by the colloidal method. The solution blend of blue-, green- and red-emitting CdSeS nanocrystals, in appropriate proportions, showed strong white emission of different shades on excitation with a UV source. We observed that the CIE coordinate of the spectrum of a particular blend is independent of excitation wavelength. We also observed that the contribution of self-absorption in energy loss in the blend of CdSeS nanocrystals is not very significant. A white-light-emitting LED has been fabricated by coating a blend mixed with polymethylmethacrylate on a commercial UV-LED.

This study introduces a dual-mode biosensor specifically designed for the quantitative detection of viruses in rapid analysis. The biosensor is unique in its use of both optical (fluorescence) and electrochemical (impedance) detection methods using the same nanocomposites, providing a dual confirmation system for virus (norovirus-like particles) quantification. The system is based on using two antibody-conjugated nanocomposites: CdSeS quantum dots and Au-N,S-GQD nanocomposites.

Photosynthesis relies on the absorption of sunlight by photosynthetic pigments (PPs) such as chlorophylls and carotenoids. While these pigments are outstanding at harvesting light, their natural structure restricts their ability to harvest light at specific wavelengths. In this study, Oleic acid-capped CdSeS and CdTeS ternary quantum dots (QDs) were synthesized using a novel two-phase synthesis method.

The development of electrochemiluminescent (ECL) luminophores with tuneable emission profiles is a key requirement in the development of multi-analyte ECL sensing platforms. This study presents the first reported use of cadmium selenide sulfide (CdSeS) quantum dots (QDs) as ECL emitters in which both the ECL emission profile and cathodic potential can be tailored by alteration of the Se/S ratio. CdSeS QDs were synthesised using an aqueous synthetic route thereby avoiding the use of organic reagents, high temperatures and inert gasses.

Recently, the surface enhanced fluorescence technique has been helpful for several biological applications. Some researchers have reported the SEF of fluorophores such as dye molecules and QDs using dielectric spacers formed by several approaches. Herein, for the first time, we report the SEF spectra of CdSeS/ZnS alloyed quantum dots (QDs) that have high photostability, less toxicity, and high biocompatibility.

Cardiovascular diseases are considered one of the leading causes of premature mortality of patients worldwide. Therefore, rapid diagnosis of these diseases is crucial to ensure the patient's survival. During a heart attack or severe muscle damage, myoglobin is rapidly released in the body to constitute itself as a precise biomarker of acute myocardial infarction.
