Abstract

Semiconductor nanocrystals are shown as highly efficient quantum photoinitiators for solvent-and-additive-free polymerization with micromolar loading, surpassing traditional organic initiators. The new quantum photoinitiators demonstrate a two-photon polymerization capacity, allowing multi-functional microprinting.
