Professor Guoqing Chang (Chinese Academy of Sciences) interviewed Professor Din Ping Tsai (City University of Hong Kong) on behalf of Advanced Photonics.
.The Nobel Prize in Chemistry 2023 was awarded to Moungi G. Bawendi, Alexei I. Ekimov, and Louis E. Brus for “the discovery and synthesis of quantum dots (QDs)”. Here we review the history of QDs, bridge the connection between colloidal QDs and epitaxial QDs, revisit the milestones of their applications in optoelectronics, and provide insights into the future advancements of QDs.
