Patent ID: 11873436

Abstract:
A quantum dot of the present invention is a nanocrystal represented by AgInE2 (E is at least one of tellurium, selenium, and sulfur) containing silver, indium, and chalcogen, in which a fluorescence wavelength is within a range of a near-infrared region of 700 to 1500 nm, a fluorescence full width at half maximum is 150 nm or less, and a fluorescence quantum yield is higher than 20%. In the present invention, an average particle diameter is preferably 1 nm or more and 15 nm or less. In addition, a method for producing a quantum dot of the present invention includes synthesizing a quantum dot represented by AgInE2 (E is at least one of tellurium, selenium, and sulfur) from a silver raw material, an indium raw material, and a chalcogenide raw material (chalcogenide is at least one of tellurium, selenium, and sulfur).
