Quantum Dots Revolutionize Infrared Light Production

Scientists at the University of Chicago have developed a method to create infrared light using colloidal quantum dots. The dots, which emit different colors of light depending on their size, have the potential to be used in infrared lasers and cost-effective sensors. The researchers found that their method was already as efficient as existing conventional methods for producing infrared light, and further improvements are expected. This discovery could lead to cheaper infrared lights and lasers, opening up new applications in various fields.
