Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Inorganic Chemistry

Background:

  • Rare earth (RE)-based nanocrystals (NCs) offer unique properties for various applications.
  • Synthesizing RE NCs with diverse crystal phases, especially metastable ones, is a significant challenge due to elemental properties and thermodynamic limitations.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel strategy for phase-selective synthesis of lanthanoid (Ln) sulfide NCs.
  • To explore the phase-controlled evolution of metastable NC frameworks.
  • To construct heterostructured Ln sulfide NCs with tunable properties.

Main Methods:

  • A transition metal cation-stabilized strategy was employed for phase-selective synthesis.
  • Lattice energy-dependent thermodynamic control and facet adsorption-induced kinetic control were used to study phase evolution.
  • Phase-designed homojunction and heterostructure NCs were constructed.

Main Results:

  • Successfully synthesized monoclinic (m), orthorhombic (o), and trigonal (t) Ln sulfide NCs.
  • Quantitatively revealed the morphological and structural evolution of metastable frameworks.
  • Constructed tunable t/m-homojunction and t/o-heterostructure Ln sulfide NCs.

Conclusions:

  • The developed transition metal cation-stabilized strategy enables the synthesis of RE-based polymorphic NCs.
  • This phase-engineering protocol provides a generalizable methodology for accessing previously inaccessible nanocrystal structures.
  • The findings pave the way for a broader library of RE-based nanomaterials with tailored properties.
