| dc.description.abstract | Oriented attachment offers new possibilities to precisely build up complex structures. In this
thesis oriented attachment of PbTe and PbS is investigated on an ethylene glycol
toluene/hexane interface. While drying a quantum dot solution on a layer of ethylene glycol,
the quantum dots attach in three distinct superstructures. Linear attachment is observed for
both materials in which the quantum dots attach head to head. Also totally square structures
are formed for PbS and a more parallelogram shape for PbTe are observed. For PbTe also
patches of siliceen lattices are fabricated. Models were made, to explain how these different
structures create | |
