Quantum dots, also referred as artificial atoms, are semiconductor particles with the potential to emit light at specific wavelengths. Owing to QD high tunable properties, they are used for several applications such as second-harmonic generation, quantum computing, solar cells, diode lasers and medical imaging. Also, QD can be suspended in the solution in order that it can also be used in inkjet printing and spin-coating. The use of QD in langmuir-blodgett thin films resulted in less-time consuming and cost-effective methods of semiconductor fabrication. Quantum dot solar cells (QDSC) turn the sun's energy into electricity, therefore increasing the amount of electricity generated by the solar cells. This helps in the production of solar energy in a cost-effective manner while minimizing the amount of wasteful heat produced in the process. Furthermore, the proportion and composition of tiny, semiconducting quantum dots make them ideal for a wide range of applications. For example, in the medical sector, these nanoparticles are used for various biomedical applications, such as medical imaging and biosensors. In addition to this, quantum dots also allow researchers to study cell processes and enhance the diagnosis and treatment of chronic diseases such as cancer. Researchers are also dedicating resources for discovering efficient and universal methods for the synthesis of Graphene Quantum Dots (GQDs) with increased stability, tunable PL emission wavelength and controllable surface properties. Moreover, quantum dots have gained enormous popularity as their integration with several nanomaterials, such as noble metal nanoparticles, carbon allotropes, upconversion nanoparticles (UCNPs), metal oxides and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) has created new opportunities and possibilities in the fields of nanoscience and nanotechnology. On the other hand, the huge cost of technology and sluggish adoption owing to extended research are presently serving as the restraints for the market growth.

Moreover, in the recent past, there has been an exceptional surge in the demand for large-size and high-resolution displays due to the improved visual experience and the reducing prices of LCDs. Big-screen displays have become more affordable owing to the decreased LCD prices. Due to the rising focus of display manufacturers on the production of 4K and 8k displays, there has been a surging demand for quantum dots owing to their ability to improve the display. Hence, the increasing demand for the large and high-resolution displays will create opportunities for the market growth.
