Abstract :

In recent years, different types of inorganic nanoparticles (iNPs) with unique physicochemical properties have emerged.1?4 Among these, quantum dots (QDs) have proved to be very versatile,finding applications in electroluminescent displays, quantumcomputing, photovoltaics , solar cells,transistors,and biological imaging.For biological imaging applications, QDs are now excellent alternatives to organic chromophores.given that they can have similar sizes, shapes,and surface functional groups. A potentially prolific new direction in inorganic chemistry and nanochemistry could be to combine NPs with small metal complexes to seek synergistic and/or cooperative effects. In this context,combining QDs with coordination complexes is being explored as a new strategy to obtain cooperative systems with improved properties for applications in sensing, biological imaging, and molecular therapy. A prominent area of research in coordination chemistry is the development of metal complexes that can act as artificial nucleases. Overall, these synthetic DNA-cleaving reagents.
