title: Synthesis of Uniform CdSe Quantum Wires via Oriented Attachment.
abstract: In this work, a facile and catalyst-free method is developed to synthesize CdSe quantum wires (QWs) in organic solvent. Analysis on the intermediate products reveals that assembly of the initially-formed magic-sized CdSe clusters via oriented attachment plays a crucial role for generation of the well-defined QWs. Due to its simplicity, this method can be extended to production of many types of semiconductor QWs.
