Function follows form: From semiconducting to metallic towards superconducting PbS nanowires by faceting the crystal
Mohammad Mehdi Ramin Moayed, Sascha Kull, Angelique Rieckmann +8
In the realm of colloidal nanostructures, with its immense capacity for shape and dimensionality control, the form is undoubtedly a driving factor for the tunability of optical and…
Synthesis of single-crystalline lead sulfide nanoframes and nanorings
Sascha Kull, Leonard Heymann, Ana B. Hungria +1
We present a colloidal synthesis strategy to obtain single-crystalline PbS nanorings. By controlling the ripening process in the presence of halide ions, a transformation of initia…
Colloidal Tin Sulfide Nanosheets: Formation Mechanism, Ligand-mediated Shape Tuning and Photo-detection
Fu Li, Mohammad Mehdi Ramin Moayed, Frauke Gerdes +4
Colloidal materials of tin(II) sulfide (SnS), as a layered semiconductor with a narrow band gap, are emerging as a potential alternative to the more toxic metal chalcogenides (PbS,…
Halogens in the synthesis of colloidal semiconductor nanocrystals
Frauke Gerdes, Eugen Klein, Sascha Kull +3
In this review, we highlight the role of halogenated compounds in the colloidal synthesis of nanostructured semiconductors. Halogen-containing metallic salts used as precursors and…
