Oxidative desulfurization (ODS) using H2O2 oxidant has emerged as a viable carbon-
neutral way to produce premium-grade sulfur-free fuels, yet it currently suffers from …

We take here the perspective of a nanochemist on the field of colloidal nanocrystals,
focusing specifically on nanocrystal synthesis. Considering the three components of a …

Nanocrystal surface chemistry is a pivotal element in the synthesis and application of
nanocrystals. This perspective focuses on colloidal nanocrystals, capped with organic …

Metal oxo clusters of the type M6O4 (OH) 4 (OOCR) 12 (M= Zr or Hf) are valuable building
blocks for materials science. Here, we synthesize a series of zirconium and hafnium oxo …

A combination of maleic acid and sodium hypophosphite as a durable press finishing agent
has been reported as a safer but equally effective alternative to conventional formaldehyde …

We recently introduced monoalkyl phosphinic acids as a ligand class for nanocrystal (NC)
synthesis. Their metal salts have interesting reactivity differences compared to metal …

Here, we demonstrate that monocrystalline (free of stacking faults) wurtzite CdSe
nanocrystals with monodisperse size, shape (dots, rods, or wires), and facet structure are …

Cadmium oleate is widely used as a cation precursor in the synthesis of cadmium
chalcogenide nanocrystal quantum dots (QDs) for a broad range of photonic and …

Water purification is critical for sustaining life and safeguarding public health, yet existing
methods face challenges such as low efficacy and high costs. This research examines the …

Since inorganic nanoparticles have unique properties that differ from those of bulk materials,
their material applications have attracted attention in various fields. In order to utilize …
