Multicolor Emission: Multicolor Emission of Hybrid Block Copolymer–Quantum Dot Microspheres by Controlled Spatial Isolation of Quantum Dots (Small 16/2013)

Multicolor-emitting hybrid microspheres of block copolymers (BCPs) and quantum dots (QDs) are fabricated by B. J. Kim and co-workers with their nanostructures controlled in all three dimensions. On page 2667, location control and separation of the QDs within the microspheres are achieved using supramolecular assemblies of BCP micelles. Through ratiometric control of site-isolated, different-colored QDs, a full-color display without undesired Förster resonance energy transfer between the QDs is achieved.
