These then react to form cadmium sulphide, which is not water soluble and thus precipitates in the form of nanoparticles.

Quantum dots consist of a core of fluorescent cadmium selenide or cadmium sulphide within an inert layer of zinc sulphide.

As the current flows through different regions of the material it causes the cadmium sulphide nanoparticles to emit light, creating an image that can be picked up by a digital camera.

On 33 separate occasions in the 1950s and 1960s, researchers released powdered zinc cadmium sulphide into the atmosphere to see how it would be dispersed under a variety of meteorological conditions.
