Low-dimensional AgTePh disordered aggregation versus directed coalescence for shortwave-IR to visible semiconductors
Abstract
We report a rapid one-pot synthesis of mesoscale 2D AgTePh quantum-well crystals through a mild heating of a 1D nanowire intermediate. We compared disordered aggregation (broadband NIR–SWIR emission) with directed coalescence (visible emission), revealing synthetic control over dimensionality and photophysics in organic–inorganic silver phenyltellurolate semiconductors.
