“…7,[39][40][41] Additionally, the direct observation during synthesis can provide evidence for, or against the central hypotheses in the different proposed nucleation and growth models. For example, in contrast to the LaMer burst nucleation, temporal overlap of nucleation and growth has been observed in the synthesis of several colloidal nanoparticles including Ir, 42,43 Pd, 7,40,44,45 Rh, 46 and CdSe. 47 Moreover, growth was shown to be reaction-instead of diffusion-limited while the nal nanoparticles had a narrow size distribution.…”
