Crystalline Nanoflowers with Different Chemical Compositions and Physical Properties Grown by Limited Ligand Protection

A varied bouquet: Crystalline nanoflowers (see picture) of compounds with different chemical and physical properties, for example, In2O3, ZnO, CoO, MnO, and ZnSe, are grown by a new approach, limited ligand protection (LLP). LLP destabilizes the primary nanoparticles and promotes their three-dimensionally oriented attachment into complex nanostructures.
