Semiconductor nanocrystals : synthesis, mechanisms of formation, and applications in biology
… colloidal synthesis in the Dinegar and LaMer model. In the conclusion of this thesis, we explore the electrically controlled solution-liquid-solid (EC-SLS) synthesis of InP nanowires. Using the EC-SLS method, we are able to controllably place n type InP nanowires into field effect …

Nucleation Control in Size and Dispersity in Metallic Nanoparticles: The Prominent Role of Particle Aggregation
… min, which defines the time scale for classical: LaMer) nucleation and growth to be within the first 15 min: 4 half-lives). The nanoparticle-growth kinetics are separately determined by TEM monitoring and UV-visible spectroscopy. Fits to the kinetic data establish that the active-growth regime …

Combining Experiments and First-Principles Calculations to Understand and Engineer Metal Exsolution in Perovskites
… We rationalize the empirical trends using the LaMer theory for nucleation and our model previously developed to predict composition effects. This achievement points towards the first-ever method for first-principles prediction of a generic perovskite composition’s exsolution properties under …

Bighead and silver carp hybridization in the Mississippi River Basin: prevalence, distribution, and post-zygotic selection
Hybridization is a pervasive evolutionary phenomenon in plant and animal taxa. Understanding the evolutionary consequences of hybridization is dependent upon the ability to adequately detect genetically admixed individuals, characterize the maternal contribution and structure of hybrid zones, and …

Modeling the Nucleation and Growth of Colloidal Nanoparticles
Controlling the size and size distribution of colloidal nanoparticles have gained extraordinary attention as their physical and chemical properties are strongly affected by size. Ligands are widely used to control the size and size distribution of nanoparticles; however, their exact roles in …
