Scientists shave ‘hairs’ off nanocrystals to improve their electronic properties

University of Chicago graduate student Josh Portner collects x-ray scattering data from tiny “supercrystals.” Scientists hope such supernanocrystals could form the basis of new technologies thanks to a new method to help them talk to one another electronically.

Chemists could yield future devices such as next-gen displays and solar cells. A new study introduces a breakthrough in making nanocrystals function together electronically. The research may open the doors to future devices with new abilities.

You can carry an entire computer in your pocket today because the technological building blocks have been getting smaller and smaller since the 1950s...
