Colloidal synthesis of nanocrystals and nanocrystal superlattices
Abstract
This paper provides an overview of the synthetic techniques used to prepare colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) of controlled composition, size, shape, and internal structure and the methods for manipulation of these materials into ordered NC assemblies (superlattices). High-temperature solution-phase synthesis (100–300°C) is followed by size-selective separation techniques in the preparation of monodisperse NC samples tunable in size from ∼1 to 15 nm in diameter with100 000 atoms). We illustrate size-dependent properties for magnetic materials using Co and for semiconducting materials using PbSe. These NC samples are sufficiently uniform in size to self-assemble into close-packed, ordered NC superlattices, also known as colloidal crystals.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
