The self-organization of CdSe nanocrystallites into three-dimensional semiconductor quantum dot superiattices (colloidal crystals) is demonstrated. The size and spacing of the dots within the superlattice are controlled with near atomic precision. This control is a result of synthetic advances that provide CdSe nanocrystallites that are monodisperse within the limit of atomic roughness. The methodology is not limited to semiconductor quantum dots but provides general procedures for the preparation and characterization of ordered structures of nanocrystallites from a variety of materials.read more

TL;DR: In this article, the formation of ultrathin colloidal Cu2-xS nanosheets by in situ small-angle X-ray scattering was studied, and it was shown that chloride stabilizes stacks of lamellar copper-thiolate supramolecular complexes, leading to 2D-constrained stack-templated nucleation and growth.
