System and method for making nanoparticles with controlled emission properties

摘要

A nanoparticle for emitting or absorbing light, and a system and method for making thereof. A nanoparticle for emitting or absorbing light includes a nanoparticle core including a core material and a nanoparticle surface passivated by at least a passivating material. The core material and the passivating material are different, and the nanoparticle is associated with a dimension equal to or less than 5 nm
