(a) Fluorescence-SERS QD-embedded silver bumpy nanoprobes, which have a SiO2@AgNS@SiO2@QD2@SiO2 structure. Forty-five different dual-modal nanoprobes were prepared from silica-coated silver bumpy nanoshells (AgNS@SiO2) with 15 different types of Raman label compounds and 3 types of QDs (red, green, and blue) [42]. (b) Mn-doped ZnS (ZnS:Mn) QDs combining dual ligands (oleylamine and octadecylamine), hydrophilic glutathione (GSH) ligands, and silica for biomedical application.

(c) Dual-functional nanoprobe composed of an iron oxide core surrounded by QD-embedded silica NPs [44]. (d) SiO2@QDs@PDA NPs for label-free, multiplexed detection of biological molecules [47].
