Background: Homoeopathy is a system of medicine which works on the principle of “Similia Similibus Curentur” (Let Like be Treated by Like). This system of holistic healing was founded by Dr. C.F. Samuel Hahnemann a German physician and cherished in the minds of Dr. Herring, Dr. Kent, Dr. Boeninghausen, Dr. Farrington and many others to attain the present status. Advanced homoeopathy is based on quantum confinement of material in serial dilution process. Homeopathic medicines are prepared from animals, plants as well as minerals with the process of potentisation and dynamization.

Aim: To analyse the mechanism of conversation of Sulphide of Cadmium into quantum dot & its applicability in homeopathy.

Results: The optical absorption property of the CdS nanoparticles studied using UV-Vis-NIR spectrophotometer is found in the range of 300-100 nm. CdS nanoparticles show absorption peak at 462 nm. The average particle size of the CdS nanoparticles calculated using Scherer formula is 20 nm.

Conclusion: CdS showed excellent emission properties make them as an outstanding Using material for their practical applications in medical devices, fluorescence drug particle and other medical applications. The great advantages of using homoeo-nanoparticles.
