Abstract: A novel near-IR emitting cationic silver chalcogenide quantum dot with a mixed coating wherein the coating comprises of at least 2 different types of materials and is capable of luminescence at the desired near IR bandwidth at wavelengths of 800-850 nm. The quantum dot is fabricated via an advantageous single-step, homogeneous, aqueous method at a low temperature resulting a near IR emitting semiconductor quantum dot with high Quantum Yield, high transfection with low toxicity. The quantum dots may be used in medical imaging, tumor detection, drug delivery and labeling as well as in quantum dot sensitized solar cells.

Abstract: The gaze-based prediction device for the prediction of the task that is intended to be performed by the user, includes at least one computer peripheral device for at least the movement of a cursor displayed on a visual display from an initial position to a final position, wherein the computer peripheral device is adapted to collect physical movement information from the user.

Abstract: A pH-responsive hybrid hydrogel, namely poly(Methacrylic acid-grafted-Ethylene Glycol) P(MAA-g-EG) cross-linked with Styrene-Butadiene-Styrene (SBS) polymer and photopolymerized by visible light. The resulting polymer turned out to have better integrities, high swelling ratios, pH-responsive and biocompatible character. Also the visible-light-induced synthesis of these pH-responsive composite wherein eosin Y is used as photoinitiator and triethanolamine is used as a co-initiator is also disclosed in the invention.
