Optical detection of gadolinium(iii) ions via quantum dot aggregation

A rapid, sensitive and selective optical readout of the presence of gadolinium(iii) ions would have a wide range of applications for clinical and environmental monitoring. We demonstrate that water-soluble CdTe quantum dots (QDs) are induced to aggregate by Gd(3+) ions in aqueous solution. By using...
