Nanoparticle-mediated nonclassical crystal growth of sodium fluorosilicate nanowires and nanoplates
We observed nonclassical crystal growth of the sodium fluorosilicate nanowires, nanoplates, and hierarchical structures through self-assembly and aggregation of primary intermediate nanoparticles. Unlike traditional ion-by-ion crystallization, the primary nanoparticles formed first and their subsequ...
