Figure 5: Brightness comparisons of ST-QDs and BE-QDs at the ensemble level and the single-particle level.

From: Brightness-equalized quantum dots

Figure 5

(a) Measured fluorescence spectra and integrated brightness of two colours of conventional ST-QDs with 400 nm excitation. (b) Histogrammed single-particle (SP) brightness values of individual QDs measured using epifluorescence microscopy (images at right show example micrographs). (c) Measured fluorescence spectra and integrated brightness values of two colours of BE-QDs upon excitation at 400 nm. (d) Histogrammed brightness values of individual QDs measured using epifluorescence microscopy. Each fluorescence image has a square edge length of 14 μm.
