Colloidal dispersions of sterically and electrostatically stabilized PbS quantum dots: the effect of stabilization mechanism on structure factors, second virial coefficients, and film-forming properties

Ahhyun Jeong, Josh Portner, Christian P. N. Tanner +7

Electrostatically stabilized nanocrystals (NCs) and, in particular, quantum dots (QDs) hold promise for forming strongly coupled superlattices due to their compact and electronical…

Origins of suppressed self-diffusion of nanoscale constituents of a complex liquid

Christian P. N. Tanner, Vivian R. K. Wall, Mumtaz Gababa +25

Understanding and ultimately controlling the transformations and properties of nanoscale systems, from proteins to synthetic nanomaterial assemblies, is limited by the inability to…

Enhancing nanoscale charged colloid crystallization near a metastable liquid binodal

Christian P. N. Tanner, Vivian R. K. Wall, Joshua Portner +17

Bottom-up assembly of nanocrystals (NCs) into ordered arrays, or superlattices (SLs), is a promising route to design materials with new functionalities, but the degree of control o…

In situ coherent X-ray scattering reveals polycrystalline structure and discrete annealing events in strongly-coupled nanocrystal superlattices

Matthew J. Hurley, Christian P. N. Tanner, Joshua Portner +13

Solution-phase bottom up self-assembly of nanocrystals into superstructures such as ordered superlattices is an attractive strategy to generate functional materials of increasing c…

In situ X-ray scattering reveals coarsening rates of superlattices self-assembled from electrostatically stabilized metal nanocrystals depend non-monotonically on driving force

Christian P. N. Tanner, James K. Utterback, Joshua Portner +7

Self-assembly of colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) into superlattices (SLs) is an appealing strategy to design hierarchically organized materials with new functionalities. Mechanistic s…

Infinite-order perturbative treatment for quantum evolution with exchange

Jacob R. Lindale, Shannon L. Eriksson, Christian P. N. Tanner +1

Many important applications in biochemistry, materials science, and catalysis sit squarely at the interface between quantum and statistical mechanics: coherent evolution is interru…
