Biointerfacing with AgBiS2 Quantum Dots for Pseudocapacitive Photostimulation
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.It is demonstrated that AgBiS2 quantum dots exhibit unique photoinduced pseudocapacitive charge transfer properties, enabling efficient light‐to‐electrical energy conversion. These quantum dots facilitate enhanced light absorption and transduction when integrated with ZnO nanowires, which serve as an effective charge transport medium.
