Because of the gap of each material represents a signature of this material, why is it not the case for a quantum dot made with the given material.
Dear Dr Zoubir,
Briefly, I think some phenomenons affect on energy gap of materials in nano-scale:
1-Quantum size effect 2- Quantum shape effect 3- Quantum surface effect.
When the dimensions of materials are reduced, the energy gap of them become more sensitive and Eg vary by dimensional changes.

In solar energy application, often we should know the sun position at each instant. With the sun position calculation, I think we can establish a database for this purpose. Then we can use-it for...

Until today, a good colored image is obtained using exclusively light. Electron microscope uses electrons and echograph uses ultrason. That gives only gray images.
