Journal ArticleDOI
Photovoltaic Devices Employing Ternary PbSxSe1-x Nanocrystals
TL;DR: In this paper, the ternary compound PbSxSe1-x was used for solar cells based on highly confined nanocrystals, which were obtained using a one-pot hot injection reaction.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tracking Nanoparticle Diffusion and Interaction during Self-Assembly in a Liquid Cell
Alexander S. Powers,Hong-Gang Liao,Shilpa N. Raja,Noah D. Bronstein,A. Paul Alivisatos,Haimei Zheng +5 more
TL;DR: The results illustrate that long-range anisotropic forces drive the formation of chains, which then clump and fold to maximize close range van der Waals interactions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Self-Assembly of Magnetic Nanoparticles in Evaporating Solution
TL;DR: It is shown that a simple but long-ranged anisotropy in nanoparticles' interactions can greatly enrich this scenario, and several dynamical mechanisms from which such unusual morphologies can arise are identified.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enzymatic ligation creates discrete multinanoparticle building blocks for self-assembly.
Shelley A. Claridge,Alexander J. Mastroianni,Yeung Billy Au,Huiyang W Liang,Christine M. Micheel,Jean M. J. Fréchet,A. Paul Alivisatos +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used enzymatic ligation of discrete nanoparticle-DNA conjugates to create nanoparticle dimer and trimer structures in which the nanoparticles are linked by single-stranded DNA, rather than by double stranded DNA as in previous experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Two-Step Synthesis of Controlled Size and Shape Platinum Nanoparticles Encapsulated in Mesoporous Silica
Zoltán Kónya,Víctor F. Puntes,Imre Kiricsi,Imre Kiricsi,Ji Zhu,A. Paul Alivisatos,Gabor A. Somorjai +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the shape and size of the platinum nanoparticles encapsulated in mesoporous silica (SBA-15) were prepared in the same solution by a novel two-step method.
