Chemists shrink gallium nitride, the material behind LED lighting, into nanocrystals
Nanocrystals are so useful that they formed the basis of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
AI Summary
Nanocrystals are so useful that they formed the basis of the 2023 Nobel Prize in Chemistry. But despite their usefulness, scientists have so far been able to make these microscopic crystals from only a limited palette of materials. A group of chemists at the University of Chicago and Argonne National Laboratory has announced a way to make nanocrystals from a useful class of materials known as metal nitrides—a previously impossible task.
