#WorldQuantumDay - The 2023
#NobelPrize in Chemistry celebrated Moungi G. Bawendi, Louis E. Brus and Alexei I. Ekimov for the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots.
These semiconductor crystals are everywhere in optics and are so small they're governed by quantum size effects.
The discovery revolutionized bioimaging by providing a bright and narrow-band optical signal that is localized at the level of common biomolecules.
