This book highlights the fabrication of orientation-controlled colloidal quantum well
(nanoplatelet) thin films using liquid interface self-assembly. The book details methods for
orientation-controlled deposition of CdSe core nanoplatelets for characterization of
directional energy transfer in nanoplatelets and layer-by-layer construction of CdSe CdZnS core
shell nanoplatelets to create optically active waveguides with precisely tunable thickness and
excellent uniformity across device scale. It also provides a future outlook for construction of
large-scale two- and three-dimensional nanoplatelet superstructures and their incorporation
into device fabrication.
