Colloidal quantum dots are often capped with long aliphatic chains anchored to the surface with coordinating head groups. This organic ligand shell prevents quantum dots from fusing, enables colloidal stability in nonpolar solvents, and eliminates trap states that prevent radiative recombination…

It is well established that access to undergraduate research experiences is critical for retaining students pursuing STEM careers. In many cases there are not enough traditional undergraduate research opportunities to accommodate all interested students…

Nanocrystal surfaces play a critical role in dictating their physical and chemical properties…

Recently it has been shown that the gas capacity of aqueous solutions can be vastly increased by suspending nanocrystals of porous materials, such as metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and zeolites, and these solutions have been termed microporous water…

The efficient transport of gas molecules through aqueous fluids is essential to sustain life, but the low solubility of nearly all gases in water imposes fundamental limitations on many biomedical technologies that can be difficult to overcome…

Many biological processes are limited by oxygen transport and low oxygen solubility in aqueous media. This limitation has generated significant research into increasing oxygen capacity for biological processes in the design of bioreactors and for artificial blood such as perfluorocarbons…

Porous liquids are an emerging area of research where gas capacity in a liquid can be significantly enhanced by dispersing a nanoscale framework material, such as a metal–organic framework or zeolite, into a solvent…
