Hydrogel encapsulation of quantum dots refers to the process of incorporating quantum dots (QDs)—nanoscale semiconductor particles with unique optical and electronic properties—into a hydrogel matrix. Hydrogel is a three-dimensional network of hydrophilic polymer chains that can hold a large amount of water and is often used for various biomedical and technological applications.
