Surface Chemistry Directs the Tunable Assembly of TiO2 Anatase Nanocubes into Three‐Dimensional Mesocrystals

Abstract: An important step in nanocrystal self-assembly is programming the large-area organization of nanocrystals into superlattices with tunable packing efficiencies. Here we utilize nanoscale surface chemistry to direct the self-assembly of TiO 2 (anatase) nanocubes into distinct three-dimensional mesocrystals. High nanocrystal solubility combined with weak electrostatic attraction induced by the pH mediated surface charge was sufficient to organize 3,4-dihydroxyhydrocinnamic acid (DHCA) functionalized nanocubes int… Show more

“…In general, such systems containing NCs as building units can be characterized as colloidal crystals [35]. A special subspecies of these colloidal crystals are mesocrystals [36][37][38][39][40]. As soon as the NC subunits that build up a colloidal crystal are anisotropic and the alignment of those occurred on a long-range order, one can speak of a mesocrystal [41,42].…”
