This project focuses on understanding the shape formation of nanocrystals, which is essential for their properties and applications. It employs advanced simulations to explore non-equilibrium conditions affecting crystal growth, aiming to optimize synthesis protocols for various nanocrystal shapes.
The shape of nanocrystals is crucial in determining surface area, reactivity, optical properties, mechanical strength, and self-assembly behavior.
The current theory on shape formation is based on thermodynamic equilibrium and predicts that each crystal structure should enforce a unique shape, with few morphological variations depending on solution chemistry.
Whereas this theory succeeded in explaining crystal habits in mineralogy, it mispredicts many nanocrystals, pointing out the necessity of…
