The 2023 Nobel Priize for Chemistry was awarded for Quantum Dots. The info graphic is below. While not an academic source of information, there is an article on WikiPedia about this.

Quantum dots are semiconductor nanocrystals are semiconductor particles a few nanometres [1]. So there is some real potential here to make smaller circuits etc I guess. I have also linked to arXiv that has several papers on this topic [2].
