FIGURE 2.1 Schematic illustration depicting the kind processes of nucleation and growth for the preparation of monodispersed nanocrystals. 

One key factor for controlling the Pt shape during nucleation and growth is surfactant. A good surfactant should interact selectively with either Pt nanoparticles or precursors in order to confine the growth. Organic molecules, polymers

In the 1980s, CdSe quantum dots vere prepared by top-dovm techniques such as lithography ho vever, size variations, crystal defects, poor reproducibility, and poor optical properties of quantum dots made them inadequate for advanced applications. Introduction of bottom-up colloidal synthesis of CdSe quantum dots by Murray et al. [3] and its further advancements brought radical changes in the properties of quantum dots and their applications in devices and biology. The colloidal syntheses of CdSe quantum dots are broadly classified into organic-phase synthesis and aqueous-phase synthesis. 

Multipods and Dendritic Nanoparticles of Platinum Colloidal Synthesis and Electrocatalytic Property... 

The approaches used for preparation of inorganic nanomaterials can be divided into two broad categories solution-phase colloidal synthesis and gas-phase synthesis. Metal and semiconductor nanoparticles are usually synthesized via solution-phase colloidal techniques,4,913 whereas high-temperature gas-phase processes like chemical vapor deposition (CVD), pulsed laser deposition (PLD), and vapor transfer are widely used for synthesis of high-quality semiconductor nanowires and carbon nanotubes.6,7 Such division reflects only the current research bias, as promising routes to metallic nanoparticles are also available based on vapor condensation14 and colloidal syntheses of high-quality semiconductor nanowires.15...

Colloidal synthesis The aqueous synthesis routes could not yield rare earth oxides directly without postheat treatment, while the dry routes usually lead to products with relatively wide size distribution and the nanocrystals could not be dispersed as colloidal solutions. Therefore, it is highly desirable to synthesize R2O3 nanocrystals in suitable nonaqueous solutions. However, the decomposition of rare earth precursor and crystallization of rare earth oxide nanocrystals would require an elevated temperature. Therefore, the solvents are usually with a high boiling point, which are called "high-boiling solvents."...

Common methods for the fabrication of metallic nanoparticle arrays are electron beam lithography, photolithography, laser ablation, colloidal synthesis, electrodeposition and, in recent time, nanosphere lithography for which a monodisperse nanosphere template acts as deposition mask. A review on advances in preparation of nanomaterials with localized plasmon resonance is given in [15].

COLLOIDAL SYNTHESIS OF LANTHANIDE ORTHOPHOSPHATE NANOPHOSPHORS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS... 

Aqueous solutions of nano-scaled activated lanthanide orthophosphates LnP04 RE (Ln = Ce, La RE = Tb, Eu, Ce ) have been obtained by the colloidal synthesis method. Kinetics and optimal conditions of the synthesis has been studied. Nanoparticles of 2.1 0.4nm size and the concentration less than 3.8 g/1 are stable in water during 3 months and longer. A possibility to use the nanoparticles as fluorescent probes and labels in biology has been discussed.
