Glowing transfer : An efficient chemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (CRET) between a luminol donor and a quantum dot acceptor was observed for the first time from a nonenzymatic reaction involving luminol–NaBrO–CdTe quantum dots (see figure). This work represents significant progress from the previously reported observation of CRET between a luminol donor and a horseradish peroxidase conjugated quantum dot acceptor from an enzyme‐catalyzed chemiluminescence reaction.
