A fundamental precept of chemistry is that properties are manifestations of the elements
present and their arrangement in space. Controlling the arrangement of atoms in …

Manipulations of nanocrystal (NC) surfaces have propelled the applications of colloidal NCs
across various fields such as bioimaging, catalysis, electronics, and sensing applications. In …

Large ZnSe nanocrystals are expected to be promising blue-light emitters with an emission
peak of 455–475 nm, which is important for the construction of display apparatus. The final …

We take here the perspective of a nanochemist on the field of colloidal nanocrystals,
focusing specifically on nanocrystal synthesis. Considering the three components of a …

One can nowadays readily generate monodisperse colloidal nanocrystals, but the
underlying mechanism of nucleation and growth is still a matter of intense debate. Here, we …

Colloidal InAs quantum dots (QDs) are widely studied as a printable optoelectronic material
for short-wave infrared (SWIR) that is not restricted by regulations on hazardous substances …

A mixture of N, N, N′-trisubstituted thiourea and cyclic N, N, N′, N′-tetrasubstituted
selenourea precursors were used to synthesize three monolayer thick CdS1− xSex …

Solution-processed semiconductors are in demand for present and next-generation
optoelectronic technologies ranging from displays to quantum light sources because of their …

Lead sulfide (PbS) colloidal quantum dots (CQDs) is emerging as a promising material for
infrared photodetectors because of its strong absorbance in the near infrared region, the …

PbS quantum dots (QDs) are attractive near-infrared (NIR) materials, but traditional synthetic
methods require inert atmosphere and/or high temperature. Herein we develop a facile …
