Summary

Introduction

Colloidal semiconductor quantum rods are at the forefront of nanoscience and nanotechnology. Current existing review articles provided significant insight on the fundamental properties of colloidal nanocrystals and their stimulating applications. Rather than a comprehensive review article of colloidal nanocrystals, this review focused on the strategies that have been developed for synthesizing colloidal semiconductor quantum rods with controlled aspect ratios and good monodispersity. At the end of this review article, challenges associated with the synthesis of colloidal semiconductor quantum rods will be included and prospects will be proposed to foresee some emerging synthetic strategies for the synthesis of colloidal anisotropic nanocrystals.
