Click on the pictures to visit the sites were they were copied from.

These are some cool pictures of cells glowing due to the quantum dots that were bonded to them.

Picture of a cancer cell.

Exponential Electron flow, in a micron sized quantum dot.

Micrograph of pyramid-shaped quantum dots grown from indium, gallium, and arsenic. Each dot is about 20 nanometers wide and 8 nanometers in height.

Everyday I expect something like this from Professor Newman
