The field of colloidal synthesis of semiconductors emerged 40 years ago and has reached a
certain level of maturity thanks to the use of nanocrystals as phosphors in commercial …

Metal-halide perovskites have rapidly emerged as one of the most promising materials of the
21st century, with many exciting properties and great potential for a broad range of …

It remains a challenge to identify the active sites of bismuth catalysts in the electrochemical
CO2 reduction reaction. Here we show through in situ characterization that the activation of …

Lasers and optical amplifiers based on solution-processable materials have been long-
desired devices for their compatibility with virtually any substrate, scalability, and ease of …

The unique electronic and catalytic properties emerging from low symmetry anisotropic (1D
and 2D) metal chalcogenides (MCs) have generated tremendous interest for use in next …

Reduced-dimensional metal halide perovskites (RDPs) have attracted significant attention in
recent years due to their promising light harvesting and emissive properties. We sought to …

Colloidal perovskite nanoplatelets are a promising class of semiconductor nanomaterials
exhibiting bright luminescence, tunable and spectrally narrow absorption and emission …

Nanocrystals (NCs) are one of the few nanotechnologies to have attained mass market
applications with their use as light sources for displays. This success relies on Cd-and In …

In this paper, we review recent progress on colloidal growth of 2D nanocrystals. We identify
the four main sources of anisotropy which lead to the formation of plate-and sheet-like …

Over the years, scientists have identified various synthetic “handles” while developing wet
chemical protocols for achieving a high level of shape and compositional complexity in …
