Problems solved by technology

The CdHgTe quantum dots synthesized in the organic phase are not hydrophilic, and must be exchanged into the water phase through ligand exchange before being applied to the biological system. The operation process is complicated and the conditions are high.
At present, CdHgTe quantum dots prepared by the aqueous phase synthesis method are rarely reported. Due to the special energy band gap and special nucleation mechanism of metallic mercury, high temperature will cause quantum dots to agglomerate and form nanorods, which is not conducive to biomarking.
