Quantum dot defines as a nanoparticle with particle size smaller than its exciton Bohr radius. Due to the remarkable quantum effects such as optical and electronic properties, they have attracted a great deal of attention by researchers and industries. Therefore, quantum dots have become a major topic in nano-technology. Here, we describe the most recent eco-friendly techniques that have been used to synthesize quantum dots, including biogenic methods, such as plant-mediated, microorganisms-mediated methods, wet chemical and solid-state methods.

Abstract We address the electronic properties of quantum dots in the two-dimensional α − 𝒯3 lattice when subjected to a perpendicular magnetic field. Implementing an infinite mass boundary condition, we first solve the eigenvalue problem for an isolated quantum dot in the low-energy, long-wavelength approximation where the system is described by an effective Dirac-like Hamiltonian that interpolates between the graphene (pseudospin 1/2) and Dice (pseudospin 1) limits. Results are compared to a full numerical (finite-mass) tight-binding lattice calculation. In a second step we analyse charge transport through a contacted α − 𝒯3 quantum dot in a magnetic field by calculating the local density of states and the conductance within the kernel polynomial and Landauer-Büttiker approaches. Thereby the influence of a disordered environment is discussed as well. Graphical abstract

In this study, adding CsPbI3 quantum dots to organic perovskite methylamine lead triiodide (CH3NH3PbI3) to form a doped perovskite film filmed by different temperatures was found to effectively reduce the formation of unsaturated metal Pb. Doping a small amount of CsPbI3 quantum dots could enhance thermal stability and improve surface defects. The electron mobility of the doped film was 2.5 times higher than the pristine film. This was a major breakthrough for inorganic quantum dot doped organic perovskite thin films.

AbstractAll-inorganic CsPbI3 perovskite quantum dots have received substantial research interest for photovoltaic applications because of higher efficiency compared to solar cells using other quantum dots materials and the various exciting properties that perovskites have to offer. These quantum dot devices also exhibit good mechanical stability amongst various thin-film photovoltaic technologies. We demonstrate higher mechanical endurance of quantum dot films compared to bulk thin film and highlight the importance of further research on high-performance and flexible optoelectronic devices using nanoscale grains as an advantage. Specifically, we develop a hybrid interfacial architecture consisting of CsPbI3 quantum dot/PCBM heterojunction, enabling an energy cascade for efficient charge transfer and mechanical adhesion. The champion CsPbI3 quantum dot solar cell has an efficiency of 15.1% (stabilized power output of 14.61%), which is among the highest report to date. Building on this strategy, we further demonstrate a highest efficiency of 12.3% in flexible quantum dot photovoltaics.
