DOI: 10.1021/acsnano.1c06047
Abstract: Self-assembly of colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) holds great promise in the multiscale engineering of solid-state materials, whereby atomically engineered NC building blocks are arranged into long-range ordered structures-superlattices (SLs)-with synergistic physical and chemical properties. Thus far,… read more here.
