The substitution of semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) by a small number of transition-metal ions with magnetic properties gives rise to magnetic-doped semiconductors. With a balance of optical and magnetic properties, these magnetic semiconductors are widely used in spintronics, bioimaging and magnet...
