Advances being made on the synthesis of nano-structured materials and on the ability to engineer their properties emanating from their dimensions and structure will have a strong and positive impact on advanced energy conversion, light-emitting, and imaging applications. Quantum dots (QD) demonstrate extraordinary optoelectronic and photonic properties due to their very nature of quantum confinement. Highly tunable properties can be achieved in such nanocrystals fabricated with controlled architectures. By exploiting these structures and their interfaces new generations of optoelectronic devices can be conceived and new frontiers can be reached in related applications.

在纳米结构材料的合成以及从其尺寸和结构中设计其特性的能力方面取得的进展将对先进的能量转换、发光和成像应用产生强烈而积极的影响。量子点（QD）由于其量子限制的性质而表现出非凡的光电和光子特性。高度可调的性能可以实现在这样的纳米晶体与控制架构制造。通过利用这些结构和它们的接口，可以设想新一代的光电器件，并且可以在相关应用中达到新的前沿。
