Quantum dots have attracted considerable interest in the fields of solid state lighting, displays, and fluorescent imaging. Their tunable optical properties by changing the size and solution processability lead to commercial applications. In this review, we focus on the advancement of white light emitting nanocrystals, their usage as the emissive layer in LEDs and display backlights, and examine the increased efficiency and longevity of quantum dots based colored LEDs. In addition, we also explore recent discoveries on quantum dots as biological labels, dynamic trackers, and applications in drug delivery.
