(Phys.org) —A team of researchers working at the Indian Institute of Science in Bangalore has found that manganese-doped quantum dots that appear orange are actually a mixture of many dots of different colors. In their paper published in the journal Physical Review Letters, the team describes how upon microscopic examination of a sample of seemingly orange quantum dots, they discovered a mix of dots of different colors that gave the sample its overall orange hue.
