Abstract

Taking SnO₂ quantum dots with random orientation as a precursor, NaOH induces self-assembly of SnO₂ dots to form the nanowires, side-by-side attachment of which generates hierarchically ordered structures. The multistep oriented attachment mechanism can help to describe the oriented assembly of big nanocrystals.
