Abstract Quantum dots (QDs) are nanocrystals of a semiconductor material that exist in size regime less than 10 nm. QDs have become promising nanoparticles for wide variety different applications. However, the major drawback is their potential toxicity. This review reports on some recent methods synthesis and explores properties, structures, applications, extraordinary because minute produces physically confined electron cloud, an effect known as quantum confinement. Certainly, special properties they had great unique optical, electronic, chemical were not observe other materials. These QD attractive scientific commercial most them recently been realized, such biosensors, bioimaging, photodetectors, displays, solar cells, wastewater treatment, computers. Finally, but end, interesting application future perspectives will expect light-emitting diode products, biomedical Li-Fi.
