  1. Conventional Properties

  2. Quantum Size Effects • A chemist likes to keep track of material in grams or in moles, where a 1 mole = 6 x 1023 atoms • But how many atoms do you really need … • for gold to become gold-colored ? • for iron to become magnetic ? • for water to flow like a liquid ? 1 < ? < 6 x 1023

  3. Colloidal Nanocrystal Shape and Size Control: The Case of Cobalt Victor F. Puntes, * Kannan M. Krishnan, A. Paul Alivisatos We show that a relatively simple approach for controlling the colloidal synthesis of anisotropic cadmium selenide semiconductor nanorods can be extended to the size-controlled preparation of magnetic cobalt nanorods as well as spher- ically shaped nanocrystals. This approach helps define a minimum feature set needed to separately control the sizes and shapes of nanocrystals. The resulting cobalt nanocrystals produce interesting two- and three-dimensional super- structures, including ribbons of nanorods. Cobalt at the Nanoscale R EPORTS

  10. What’s the Difference? Quantization “Quantized” Energy Levelsonly certain properties are allowed at each sizeDE = hf = hc/l

  11. Energy Quantization

  12. What’s the Difference? Quantization Only certain energies are allowed: DE = hf = hc/l, where l is a wavelength scale
