Abstract
AbstractWe use High Resolution Transmission Microscopy (HRTEM) to study CdSe, CdS/HgS/CdS quantum-dot quantum well (QDQW), and CdSe/CdS core-shell nanocrystals, grown by wet-chemical techniques. The nanocrystals have faceted Wulff polyhedron shapes.In addition to HRTEM, we employ multi-wavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD) x-ray diffraction. We use computer modeling to help interpret the experimental data.Growth of a heterogeneous phase proceeds epitaxially preserving the overall shape and point-group symmetry of the original seed nanocrystals, both for wurtzite (CdSe/CdS) and zincblende (CdS/HgS/CdS) type structures.Recently prepared InAs nanocrystals also show evidence of faceting as observed by HRTEM and may lend themselves equally well to epitaxy.
