Abstract
Coated fluorescent semiconductor nanoparticles having an organic surface layer of multi-functional surface ligands that include a nanocrystal binding center and one or more covalently attached functional groups or reactive functional groups are described as well as water-dispersible nanoparticles having an organic surface layer or multi-functional surface ligands and methods for the preparation and use of such coated nanoparticles.
