Crystals made from colloids are valuable in a wide range of applications such as batteries, fuel cells, sensors, solar cells, and catalysts.
. Scientists have sought ways to assemble these crystals into larger structures using bonding methods that operate in targeted directions. However, this approach is quite challenging. A new strategy exploits the ability to create precise regions with specific chemical and physical properties on the surface of the crystal particles. Scientists can use selective interactions between these regions on different particles to direct the formation of the crystal structure.
The larger particles squeeze together into tighter and tighter packings that eventually lead to crystal formation. The composition of the smaller particles influences this squeezing process. Scientists have suggested that it is theoretically possible to use these forces to selectively position non-spherical particles within a crystal lattice by creating surface patches. However, scientists had not realized this possibility.
