Role of surface ligands in the nanoparticle assemblies : a case study of regularly shaped colloidal crystals composed of sodium rare earth fluoride

Assembly of nanoparticles is a promising route to fabricate devices from nanomaterials. Colloidal crystals are well-defined three-dimensional assemblies of nanoparticles with long-range ordered structures and crystalline symmetries. Here, we use a solvent evaporation induced assembly method to obtai...

520 |a Assembly of nanoparticles is a promising route to fabricate devices from nanomaterials. Colloidal crystals are well-defined three-dimensional assemblies of nanoparticles with long-range ordered structures and crystalline symmetries. Here, we use a solvent evaporation induced assembly method to obtain colloidal crystals composed of polyhedral sodium rare earth fluoride nanoparticles. The building blocks exhibit the same crystalline orientation in each colloidal crystal as indicated in electron diffraction patterns. The driving force of the oriented assembly is ascribed to the facet-selected capping of oleic acid molecules on {110} facets of the nanoparticles, and the favorable coordination behavior of OA molecules is explained by the steric hindrance determined adsorption based on the studies of the surface atomic structure of nanocrystals and molecular mechanics simulation of OA molecules. The capping ligands also provide hydrophobic interactions between nanoparticles and further direct the oriented assembly process to construct a face-centered cubic structure. These results not only provide a new type of building block for colloidal crystals, but also clarify the important role of surface ligands, which determine the packed structure and orientations of nanoparticles in the assemblies
