Nanocrystal surface chemistry is a pivotal element in the synthesis and application of
nanocrystals. This perspective focuses on colloidal nanocrystals, capped with organic …

The interface robustness and spatial arrangement of functional molecules on metallic
nanomaterials play a key part in the potential applications of functional nano-objects. The …

We recently introduced monoalkyl phosphinic acids as a ligand class for nanocrystal (NC)
synthesis. Their metal salts have interesting reactivity differences compared to metal …

Ligands play a crucial role in the synthesis of colloidal nanocrystals. Nevertheless, only a
handful molecules are currently used, oleic acid being the most typical example. Here, we …

Three novel thiol bearing resorcin [4] arene and pyrogallol [4] arene derivatives were
synthesized. Their properties were studied with regards to self-assembly, disulfide …

Despite being studied for the past 40 years, the chemistry and photophysics of colloidal
nanocrystals (NCs) remain rich with mysteries. Nonetheless, NCs are now part of …

This chapter covers scientific contributions in quinquevalent organo-phosphorus chemistry
published in the literature in 2021. The review is not comprehensive but shows the most …
