Colloidal InP quantum dots (QDs) have emerged as potential candidates for constructing nontoxic QD-based optoelectronic devices. However, charge transport in QD thin-film assemblies has been limitedly explored. Herein, we report the synthesis of ∼8 nm edge length (∼6.5 height), tetrahedral QDs and study thin films using platform field-effect transistor (FET). We design a hybrid ligand-exchange strategy that combines solution-based exchange with S2– solid-state N3– to enhance interdot...

For nanostructures in advanced electronic and plasmonic systems, a single-crystal structure with controlled orientation is essential. However, the fabrication of such devices has remained challenging, as current nanofabrication methods often suffer from either polycrystalline growth or difficulty integrating single crystals substrates desired orientations locations to create functional devices.

Abstract The underlying atomistic mechanism of deformation is a central problem in mechanics and materials science. Whereas crystalline metals fundamentally understood, the understanding amorphous lacks behind, particularly identifying involved temporal spatial scales. Here, we reveal that at small scales size-dependent behavior significantly deviates from homogeneous flow, exhibiting increasing rate with reducing size gradually shifted composition.

Addressing complex materials science problems through machine learning (ML) is challenging. A primary reason for the challenge that underlying controlling mechanisms may vary within considered problem space. To quantify this, we divide alloy data into subgroups and construct ML models to predict metallic glass formation.
