Abstract

Opposites attract (selectively): Oppositely charged nanoparticles characterized by different size distributions form 3D supracrystals (see figure) only if the distributions overlap. Crystal quality decreases rapidly with decreasing degree of overlap, and, irrespective of the ratio of particle diameters/charges, no crystals are observed for non-overlapping distributions.
