ZnO quantum dots a novel nanomaterial for various applications: Recent advances and challenges

ABSTRACT

Globally, in the recent era of 22nd century, ZnO quantum dots has gained huge attention of researchers towards its various applications in nano-biotechnology industry. This review article provides substantial approach on several aspects of ZnO quantum dots, its properties, synthesis process, factors affecting the synthesis process. Recent advances and challenges in QDs synthesis and their applications. Though the use of ZnO QDs has shown huge progress, but still so many challenges are there at present like economically cheaper level commercialization of quantum dots, proper in vitro and in vivo application of ZnO quantum dots, so that it can fulfil the need of the industry for various applications.
