Original Abstract

Luminescent quantum dots (QDs) are increasingly attracting the attention as possible optical detectors of biomolecules, such as proteins, DNA, etc. Large amount of different factors influences the selection of material for QDs synthesis when dealing with substances from living organisms. Non-toxic and biocompatible titanium dioxide (TiO2) and gold were chosen as a suitable material for QDs creation employing template based non-lithographic technique. Namely, nanoporous alumina template was used for the fabrication of TiO2 QDs by anodic oxidation of sputtered Ti film on a silicon wafer followed with gold deposition by electrochemical approach.
