Silicon has a diamond-like cubic crystal lattice for which two-dimensional (2D) nanometer thickness nanosheet crystallization appears not to be trivial. However, in this issue of ACS Nano, the group led by Heon-Jin Choi demonstrates the gas-phase dendritic growth of Si nanosheets, only 1 to 13 nm thick. Moreover, such nanosheets display strong thickness-dependent photoluminescence in a visible range with red, green, and blue emission each documented.
硅具有类金刚石立方晶体结构,二维(2D)纳米厚度纳米片的结晶似乎并非易事。然而,在本期的《美国化学会纳米》杂志中,崔桓进(Heon-Jin Choi)领导的研究团队展示了气相树枝状生长的硅纳米片,其厚度仅为 1 到 13 纳米。此外,这些纳米片在可见光范围内表现出强烈的厚度依赖性光致发光,其中红色、绿色和蓝色发光均有记录。
