Foreword
When investigations on semiconductor nanocrystal quantum dots started more
than a quarter of a century ago, no one ever believed that nanoparticle research would
develop into one of the major fields in modern science. The basis was laid by studies
of photocatalysis and artificial water splitting driven by the former oil crisis. These
euphorically started activities ebbed away more and more when on one side oil
brimmed over again and the scientists on the other did n
