  • Multilayer polymer-quantum dot light emitting diodes and methods of making and using thereof
    Patent number: 7132787
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are multilayer polymer-quantum dot light emitting diodes (PQD-LEDs) and methods of making thereof. As disclosed, the PQD-LEDs comprise at least one quantum dot layer made from an aqueous suspension of quantum dots upon which a polymer layer is deposited by spin coating methods known in the art. The quantum dot layers and the polymer layers are discrete and distinct from one another. Also disclosed are methods of making the PQD-LEDs of the present invention and kits.
    Type: Grant

  • Mono and dual conjugation of nanostructures and methods of making and using thereof
    Publication number: 20040158051
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are molecular beacons comprising a quantum dot attached to a first end of at least one nucleic acid molecule having a probe and forms a stem-loop structure in the absence of a target sequence hybridized thereto and a quencher attached to a second end of the nucleic acid molecule. Also disclosed are methods for making the molecular beacons, molecular beacon arrays, and kits comprising the molecular beacons.
