Synthesis
The traditional method involves molecular
precursors, which can include typical
metal salts and a source of the anion.
Most semiconducting nanomaterials
feature chalcogenide (SS−, SeS−, TeS−) and
pnicnides (P3−, As3−, Sb3−). Sources of
these elements are the silylated
derivatives such as
bis(trimethylsilyl)sulfide (S(SiMe3)2 and
tris(trimethylsilylphosphine (P(SiMe3)3).[7]
Nanoscale tertiary phosphine-stabilized Ag-S cluster
prepared from molecular precursors. Color code: gray
= Ag, violet = P, orange = S.[8]
Applications
Nanocrystals made with zeolite are used
to filter crude oil onto diesel fuel at an
ExxonMobil oil refinery in Louisiana at a
cost less than conventional methods.[10]
