Perovskite quantum dots are considered promising materials for LEDs, photocatalysis, and future quantum light sources. Researchers at LMU Munich have managed to master two major hurdles in working with these quantum dots: their stability in solution and precise control of their growth.

We present a synthesis method for colloidal nanocrystals exhibiting a one-dimensional Peierls-like distortion in the form of size-tunable colloidal and monodisperse Bi13S18I2 nanorods. The Bi13S18I2 n...

Lead-free halide double perovskite Cs2CuSbCl6 nanocrystals have recently been reported to have a low bandgap of 1.66 eV. In this work, we show that the optical absorption spectra and X-ray diffraction...
