The development of electronics is increasingly dependent on low-cost, flexible, solution-
processed semiconductors. Colloidal quantum dots are solution-processed semiconducting …

Phononic crystals (PnCs) control the transport of sound and heat similar to the control of
electric currents by semiconductors and metals or light by photonic crystals. Basic and …

Colloidal nanocrystals are successfully used as nanoscale building blocks for creating
hierarchical solids with structures that range from amorphous networks to sophisticated …

Phononic crystals (PnCs) and acoustic metamaterials (AMMs) are artificially architected
materials endowed with the capabilities of wave manipulation. This review specifically …

Phononic crystals (PnCs) are capable of manipulating the flow of elastic energy through
their periodic structures and have emerged as a promising field in the last two decades …

We investigate the charge carrier dynamics in HgTe quantum dots emitting in the second
near-infrared window (1000–2500 nm). To provide a link between fundamental physics and …

We correlate spatially resolved fluorescence (-lifetime) measurements with X-ray
nanodiffraction to reveal surface defects in supercrystals of self-assembled cesium lead …

Layered compounds characterized by van der Waals gaps are often associated with
relatively weak interlayer particle interactions. However, in specific scenarios, these …

Conspectus Nanocomposite materials can achieve desirable characteristics otherwise
unavailable to single component systems, making them attractive platforms to precisely …

The hypersonic phonon propagation in large-area two-dimensional colloidal crystals is
probed by spontaneous micro Brillouin light scattering. The dispersion relation of thermally …
