Abstract
(Chemical Equation Presented) Something to fret about: Luminescent semiconductor nanocrystals are covered with polymeric ligands which form many bonds to the nanocrystal (NC) and increase their solubility. The ligands are decorated with an organic dye molecule (see picture) so that the electronic interaction in individual nanocrystal-dye complexes can be investigated by fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) experiments. The results show many factors influence the FRET results.
