image: This is a schematic illustration of doped nanocrystals, showing a single electron wave function from an impurity atom inside the nanocrystal (left), and multiple electrons from many impurities inside the nanocrystal (right). This image relates to an article that appeared in the April 1, 2011, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The study, by Dr. David Mocatta of Hebrew University in Jerusalem, Israel, and colleagues was titled, " Heavily Doped Semiconductor Nanocrystal Quantum Dots." view more
