Abstract

Single-component and binary nanocrystal superlattices are assembled over wafer-scale areas using the dip-coating method. A series of measurements are performed to confirm superlattice assembly. This study demonstrates the versatility of dip-coating in depositing a diverse set of nanocrystal materials and superlattice structures, while combining large-area deposition with nanoscale control. © 2015 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.
