Come check out our paper on fluoride surface passivation of InP and II-VI QDs. Great work everyone!
Fluoride is an excellent passivating ligand for quantum dots. Very thorough and detailed look at the reaction of oleylammonium fluoride with InP and II-VI QDs in our latest paper with @theowenlab and @Rodolphevallei1.

The second of 2 articles in @ChemicalScience on the nucleation and growth of PbS QDs studied with in situ SAXS at @esrfsynchrotron. I dreamt about this as a postdoc and only possible with @b_abk6 and @theowenlab.

Modern syntheses of colloidal nanocrystals yield extraordinarily narrow size distributions that are believed to result from a rapid “burst of nucleation” (La Mer, JACS, 1950, 72(11), 4847–4854)...
