Article Synopsis
- The study introduces a wearable photodetector made from hybrid nanocomposites of carbon materials and biocompatible semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs), highlighting strong photoresponsivity and durability.
- The research addresses the limitations of traditional heavy metal quantum dots, such as lead and cadmium, which are toxic and unsuitable for biomedical applications, by using silver sulfide (AgS) NCs and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) instead.
- A simple ultrasonic irradiation technique was used to fabricate the nanocomposite film without harmful chemicals, optimizing the size of AgS NCs to enhance both photo-response and mechanical durability for applications in near-infrared light detection.
