Title: Halometallate ligand-capped semiconductor nanocrystals

Abstract

Halometallate-capped semiconductor nanocrystals and methods for making the halometallate-capped semiconductor nanocrystals are provided. Also provided are methods of using solutions of the halometallate-capped semiconductor nanocrystals as precursors for semiconductor film formation. When solutions of the halometallate ligand-capped semiconductor nanocrystals are annealed, the halometallate ligands can act as grain growth promoters during the sintering of the semiconductor nanocrystals.
