Quantum dots are an emerging technology with many applications in industry. Pre-determined and controllable optical properties of the quantum dots, as well as the existence of large libraries of established protocols for their dispersion in aqueous solutions, make them an attractive option for nuclear and particle physics applications. In this talk, we introduce quantum dots and our R&D effort to develop a water-based quantum dots liquid scintillator. Then, we show the results of the optical measurements and cosmic ray test. Finally, we discuss the future potential of a radiation detector for nuclear and particle physics, with a special interest in neutrino physics.
