Doped metal oxide nanocrystals (NCs) exhibit tunable localized surface plasmon resonances (LSPRs) in the infrared spectral region. Compared to the binary oxides commonly studied, plasmonic NCs derived from ternary oxides remain far less explored primarily due to the difficulty of controlling NC phase-purity and stoichiometry. Here, we report the synthesis of inverse spinel-type cadmium stannate (Cd₂SnO₄) NCs, for which cation-exchange reactions were developed to tailor their composition and LSPR properties. X-ray absorption spectroscopy studies revealed that the inequivalent tetrahedrally and octahedrally coordinated Cd²⁺ can be selectively exchanged for Cu⁺ and In³⁺ ions, respectively, enabling broadband tunable LSPR and Cu-mediated cation-exchange with lanthanide ions that are otherwise difficult to incorporate. Here, our work paves the way for systematic compositional engineering to accelerate the design of complex metal oxide NCs with emerging plasmonic, electronic, and magnetic properties.
