Quantum-Dots-in-Carbon functional materials for Energy Storage

The 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to American-French-Tunisian chemist Moungi Bawendi, American chemist Louis Brus, and Russian physicist Alexei Ekimov for their groundbreaking work on the ”discovery and synthesis of quantum dots.” Quantum dots have been widely applied in the areas of Electronics, Biomedical Imaging, Solar Cells, and Chemical Sensors. However, research on the application of quantum dots in electrochemical energy storage remains relatively limited. In the context of ”net-zero” goals, Quantum-Dots-in-Carbon functional materials hold broad application prospects in energy storage areas. Here, we have reviewed and forecasted the trajectory of quantum dots, with a special focus on our team’s contributions in the field of Quantum-Dots-in-Carbon functional Materials. Our efforts have provided an overview and analysis of this area, paving the way for future research and indicating directions for further exploration.
