  By Girish Mohanta, Navraj Singh Brar, Rupesh Kumar, A. K. Paul, Akash Deep

  Abstract: The ZnSe quantum dots (QDs) have gained considerable research interest as an alternative to heavy-metal-based QDs and are non-toxic, have strong emission in UV-blue region, and with wider band gap are suitable for doping various ions to tune their optical and electronics properties. For biological applications, aqueous stability of QDs is an indispensable prerequisite. Mercapto-carboxylic acids such as mercaptopropionic acids (MPA), thioglycolic acids (TGA), etc., are commonly used for providing …
