In this talk, I will provide an overview of light-emitting colloidal nanostructures synthesized in our labs, which include II-VI quantum dots emitting over the broad visible and near-infrared spectral range [1,2]; carbon dots [3,4]; perovskite nanocrystals [5,6]; and copper clusters [7,8]. I will highlight their photophysical properties studied by advanced optical spectroscopy techniques, and demonstrate their emerging applications ranging from light-emitting diodes [6-8] to liquid crystal displays [9] and luminescence nanothermometry [10].
