  • Descrição: Digestive ripening (DR) represents a powerful strategy for improving the size homogeneity of colloidal nanostructures. It relies on the ligand-mediated dissolution of larger nanoparticles in favor of smaller ones and is often considered to be the opposite of Ostwald ripening. Despite its successful application to size-focusing of metal colloids, digestive ripening of semiconductor nanocrystals has received little attention to date. Here, we explore this synthetic niche and demonstrate that ligand-induced ripening of semiconductor nanocrystals exhibits an unusual reaction path. The unique aspect of the DR process in semiconductors lies in the thermally activated particle coalescence, which leads to a significant increase in the nanocrystal size for temperatures above the threshold value (T th = 200–220 °C). Below this temperature, nanoparticle sizes focus to an ensemble average diameter just like in the case of metal colloids. The existence of the thermal threshold for coalescence offers an expedient strategy for controlling both the particle size and the size dispersion. Such advanced shape control was demonstrated using colloids of CdS, CdSe, CsPbBr3, and CuZnSnS4, where monodisperse samples were obtained across broad diameter ranges. We expect the demonstrated approach to be extended to other semiconductors as a simple strategy for tuning the nanoparticle morphology.
