Robust crosslinked capsules are produced from water droplets stabilized by oil/water interfacial assembly of norbornene‐functionalized CdSe/ZnS core–shell quantum dots that can be crosslinked by ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (see Figure). The mechanical integrity of the capsules is maintained after removal of the interface. An amphiphilic polyethylene glycol‐substituted ruthenium benzylidene catalyst proved ideal for this interfacial polymerization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
