Abstract :
In our study, we investigated the quantum dots integrated with silica binding peptides on silica surface for three different assembly approaches. We used biotinylated silica binding peptides (SBP-bio) as smart linkers to immobilize quantum dots and streptavidin functionalized CdSe/ZnS core-shell quantum dots (SA-QD) as light emitters.
