Self-assembly of uniform hexagonal yttrium phosphate nanocrystals?

Chemical Communications Pub Date: 2006-07-13 DOI: 10.1039/B606531G

Abstract

We report a facile chemical route for the synthesis of uniform hexagonal yttrium phosphate hydrate nanocrystals and their assembly into close-packed regular superstructures through noncovalent interactions of long chain molecules attached to the surfaces of inorganic nanocrystals.
