Connecting energetics to dynamics in particle growth by oriented attachment using real-time observations
Nanocrystal growth by oriented attachment remains poorly understood, despite being a prevalent pathway in geochemical, materials synthesis, and biomineral systems. Here, the authors show that zinc oxide nanocrystals grow by oriented attachment along the (001) plane driven by dipole-dipole interactio...

description |
Nanocrystal growth by oriented attachment remains poorly understood, despite being a prevalent pathway in geochemical, materials synthesis, and biomineral systems. Here, the authors show that zinc oxide nanocrystals grow by oriented attachment along the (001) plane driven by dipole-dipole interactions that align the particles at long distances prior to their collision and fusion. |
