InP/ZnS core shell nanocrystals are Cadmium free/heavy metal free quantum dots suitable for different applications like light emitting diodes (LEDs; display; biomedical applications. The toxicity of Cd compounds and the corresponding regulations worldwide makes these InP/ZnS quantum dots as more desirable alternatives for consumer applications.

Material has a shelf life of at least 1 year (stored at 4-10°C in the dark under inert gas such as nitrogen or argon)
Fluorescence molecular imaging is rapidly increasing its popularity in image guided surgery applications. To help develop its full surgical potential it remains a challenge to generate dual-emissive imaging agents that allow for combined visible assessment and sensitive camera based imaging.
Visual color changes between 300 and 510 K were observed in the photoluminescence (PL) of colloidal InP/ZnS core-shell nanocrystals. A subsequent study of PL spectra in the range 2-510 K and fitting the temperature dependent line shift and line width
