}Two-photon fluorescent (TPF) molybdenum disulfide quantum dots (MoS2 QDs) were synthesized through a facile and one-step solvothermal approach. The MoS2 QDs exhibit small size and high stability. Because of their low toxicity and TPF ability, the MoS2 QDs are successfully applied in two-photon fluorescence bio-imaging.
