Binary Superlattices
Nanoparticles of different sizes and compositions can be assembled into
superlattices with a controlled crystalline order, and are called binary
or bimodal superlattices. The types of superlattices formed (figure 1)
depends on the relative sizes of the particles and on the charge of the
particles in solution during assebly. This is a collaboration with
Chris Murray of the IBM T.J. Watson Research Center (currently at the
University of Pennsylvania).
