| Description: |
The assembly of CdSe/CdS dot/rod nanocrystals (NCs) with variable length of ZnS tips into aerogel networks is presented. To this end, a partial region selective cation exchange procedure is performed replacing Cd by Zn starting at the NC tip. The produced aerogel networks are investigated structurally and optically. The networks of tip-to-tip connected NCs have an intricate band structure with holes confined to the CdSe cores while electrons are delocalized within the CdS also within connected building blocks. However, the ZnS tips act as a barrier of variable length and strength between the NC building blocks partly confining the electrons. This results in NC based aerogel networks with tunable strength of coupling between building blocks. |
