Abstract

Multicolor electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of semiconductor nanocrystals tuned by size effect has been successfully achieved using quantum dots (QDs) with core-shell structure for the first time. It would open a new way and provide a guidance for design and preparation of stable and strong multicolor ECL emitters for simultaneous multicomponent analysis application.
