Abstract

Superconducting nanocrystals, or quantum dots (QDs), have emerged as a new tool in physiological imaging, combining high brilliance, photostability, broad excitation but very narrow emission spectra, and surface chemistry compatible with biomolecular conjugation. In this review, we demonstrate the power of QDs in diverse applications including long-term in vivo fluorescence imaging.
