Solution-processed semiconductor devices are increasingly exploiting heterostructuring—
an approach in which two or more materials with different energy landscapes are integrated …

Angular X-ray cross-correlation analysis (AXCCA) is a technique which allows quantitative
measurement of the angular anisotropy of X-ray diffraction patterns and provides insights …

Thin films of colloidal quantum dots (QDs) are promising solar photovoltaic (PV) absorbers
in spite of their disordered nature. Disordered PV materials face a power conversion …

Energetic disorder in quantum dot solids adversely impacts charge carrier transport in
quantum dot solar cells and electronic devices. Here, we use ultrafast transient absorption …

Nature controls the assembly of complex architectures through self-limiting processes;
however, few artificial strategies to mimic these processes have been reported to date. Here …

Nanocrystal micro/nanoarrays with multiplexed functionalities are of broad interest in the
field of nanophotonics, cellular dynamics, and biosensing due to their tunable electrical and …

We show that the combination of X-ray scattering with a nanofocused beam and X-ray cross
correlation analysis is an efficient way for the full structural characterization of …

We investigate in situ the structural changes during self-assembly of PbS nanocrystals from
colloidal solution into superlattices, solvent evaporation, and ligand exchange at the …

Nanoparticle assemblies with long-range packing order and preferred crystallographic
orientation of building blocks, ie, mesocrystals, are of high interest not only because of their …

One aspect of the research on mesocrystals nowadays focuses on applications, whereby
such applications demand mesocrystals with a tunable size. To achieve this task, more effort …
