InAs(ZnCdS) Quantum Dots Optimized for Biological Imaging in the Near-Infrared

We present the synthesis of InAs quantum dots (QDs) with a ZnCdS shell with bright and stable emission in the near-infrared (NIR, 700−900 nm) region for biological imaging applications. We demonstrate how NIR QDs can image tumor vasculature in vivo at significantly deeper penetration depths and with...
