Organic ligands are essential in the growth of monodisperse colloidal inorganic
nanocrystals and can be leveraged to create a wide variety of shapes and sizes. Inorganic …

Chemical methods developed over the past two decades enable preparation of colloidal
nanocrystals with uniform size and shape. These Brownian objects readily order into …

All nanomaterials share a common feature of large surface-to-volume ratio, making their
surfaces the dominant player in many physical and chemical processes. Surface ligands …

The subject of this review is the colloidal quantum dot (QD) and specifically the interaction of
the QD with proximate molecules. It covers various functions of these molecules, including (i) …

This review examines characterization challenges inherently associated with understanding
nanomaterials and the roles surface and interface characterization methods can play in …

Although solvent–ligand interactions play a major role in nanocrystal synthesis, dispersion
formulation, and assembly, there is currently no direct method to study this. Here we …

We survey the chemical reactions between common precursors used in the synthesis of
metal chalcogenide nanocrystals and outline how they affect the mechanism and kinetics of …

The chemical nature of the organic cations governs the optoelectronic properties of two-
dimensional organic-inorganic perovskites. But its mechanism is not fully understood. Here …

This review outlines the set of technical approaches to answering three major questions
about the surface chemistry of colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs):(i) What is the …

This Communication describes the photoredox catalysis of a C–C coupling reaction
between 1-phenylpyrrolidine (PhPyr) and phenyl trans-styryl sulfone by visible-light …
