Abstract:
Hierarchically-assembled binary cadmium chalcogenide (CdX, X = S, Se, Te) oligomers were engineered. CdTe precursor injections into a solution containing seeded nanocrystals provided longer oligomers possessing alternating and phase-separated CdX and CdTe constituents in the same wire, like an alternating copolymer.
