  • Halometallate ligand-capped semiconductor nanocrystals
    Patent number: 10541134
    Abstract: Halometallate-capped semiconductor nanocrystals and methods for making the halometallate-capped semiconductor nanocrystals are provided. Also provided are methods of using solutions of the halometallate-capped semiconductor nanocrystals as precursors for semiconductor film formation. When solutions of the halometallate ligand-capped semiconductor nanocrystals are annealed, the halometallate ligands can act as grain growth promoters during the sintering of the semiconductor nanocrystals.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 2, 2016
    Date of Patent: January 21, 2020
    Assignee: The University of Chicago
    Inventors: James Kurley, Hao Zhang, Dmitri V. Talapin, Jake Russell, Margaret Hervey Hudson
