Nanoclusters as Synthons for Unit-Cell-Size Comparable One-Dimensional Nanostructures

Seed-like Hollow Nanoparticles by a Dynamic Interfacial-Tension-Controlled Polar Growth Strategy

“…Anisotropic nucleation and growth are the common strategies for the synthesis of nonspherical nanostructures. , Polar growth is a ubiquitous and oriented growth pattern that determines plant seed formation with an anisotropic morphology. The formation of anisotropic seeds highly depends on the changes of curvature and interfacial tension of their cell membranes in microscopic view .…”
