Abstract

reduction and hydrogen evolution), sensing, and biomedicine. This review provides a comprehensive overview of recent advancements in eco-friendly synthesis and surface modification strategies aimed at enhancing the radiative recombination efficiency of fluorescent MQDs. Furthermore, we critically assess the wide-ranging practical applications of MQDs and evaluate the progress achieved through both experimental and computational approaches. Special emphasis is placed on the most promising avenues for improving their optical performance and integration into high-efficiency devices. Finally, we outline key challenges and offer insights into future research directions. This review bridges fundamental understanding with technological development, reinforcing the transformative potential of MQDs in next-generation applications.
