Photo 1

sketch of a bimodal superlattice

Sketch of a self-assembled bimodal superlattice of nanocrystals. The superlattice is composed of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanocrystals (blue) in a cubic array, with an icosohedron of 13 semiconducting lead selenide crystals (red) at the center of each cube. (The thirteenth lead selenide nanocrystal is at the center of the icosohedron.)
