A quantum dot structure is provided, the quantum dot structure comprising: a nanocrystalline core from a first semiconductor material, a nanocrystalline shell from a second semiconductor material on the nanocrystalline core, at least one encapsulation layer on the nanocrystalline shell, wherein functional groups are present within the at least one encapsulation layer and/or on the surface of the at least one encapsulation layer facing away from the nanocrystalline shell, the functional groups being able to chemically react in a reversible manner. Further, a method for producing a quantum dot structure and a light emitting device are provided.

Quantum dot structure, method for producing a quantum dot structure, and light emitting device

A nanoparticle is specified. The nanoparticle comprises a nanocrystal configured to convert electromagnetic radiation of a first wavelength range into electromagnetic radiation of a second wavelength range, a first encapsulation comprising pores which reach into or through the first encapsulation, and a second encapsulation which is different from the first encapsulation, wherein the second encapsulation abuts at least one of the pores. Furthermore, a structure comprising a plurality of nanoparticles and a method for producing nanoparticle is specified.
