The cylindrical quasi-one-dimensional shape of colloidal semiconductor nanorods (NRs)
gives them unique electronic structure and optical properties. In addition to the band gap …

While initial theories on quantum confinement in colloidal quantum dots (QDs) led to
analytical band gap/size relations or sizing functions, numerical methods describe size …

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 …

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

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are promising building blocks in optoelectronic devices,
mainly due to their size/shape/composition‐tunable properties. Core–shell QDs, in …

Colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are highly attractive as the active material for optical amplifiers
and lasers. Here, we address the relation between the structure of CdSe/CdS core/shell …

Here, we synthesized 2-ethylhexyl, 2-hexyldecyl, 2-[2-(2-methoxyethoxy) ethoxy] ethyl, oleyl,
and n-octadecyl phosphonic acid and used them to functionalize CdSe and HfO2 …

Nanocrystals with a size in the regime of vanishing quantum confinement, or bulk
nanocrystals (BNCs), have emerged recently as viable solution processable optical gain …

Surface chemistry and core defects are known to play a prominent role in governing the
photophysical properties of nanocrystalline semiconductors. Nevertheless, investigating …

Here, we demonstrate that monocrystalline (free of stacking faults) wurtzite CdSe
nanocrystals with monodisperse size, shape (dots, rods, or wires), and facet structure are …
