Oxides containing Ga have been studied by various research communities due to their stability under harsh conditions as well as conductivity and luminescence properties. Nanostructured forms of such oxides can be fabricated by a variety of methods. Advances in synthesis approaches have focused on control over size and shape that can permit adaptation in applied interfaces related to medicine, energy, and the environment. Chemical functionalization can enhance the stability of nanostructured oxides containing Ga in aqueous solutions. In this prospective, we summarize progress in making these materials as well as functionalizing them in water solutions. The prospective also identifies future opportunities with these materials in applied and fundamental materials chemistry research.
