Abstract
Zinc oxide is an extensively studied semiconductor with a wide band gap in the near-UV. Its many interesting properties have found use in optics, electronics, catalysis, sensing, as well as biomedicine and microbiology. In the nanoscale regime the functional properties of ZnO can be precisely tuned by manipulating its size, shape, chemical composition (doping), and surface states. In this review, we focus on the colloidal synthesis of ZnO nanocrystals (NCs) and provide a critical analysis of the synthetic methods currently available for preparing ZnO colloids. First, we outline key thermodynamic considerations for the nucleation and growth of colloidal nanoparticles, including an analysis of different reaction methodologies and of the role of dopant ions on nanoparticle formation. We then comprehensively review and discuss the literature on ZnO NC systems, including reactions in polar solvents that traditionally occur at low temperatures upon addition of a base, and high temperature reactions in organic, nonpolar solvents. A specific section is dedicated to doped NCs, highlighting both synthetic aspects and structure-property relationships. The versatility of these methods to achieve morphological and compositional control in ZnO is explicated. We then showcase some of the key applications of ZnO NCs, both as suspended colloids and as deposited coatings on supporting substrates. Finally, a critical analysis of the current state of the art for ZnO colloidal NCs is presented along with existing challenges and future directions for the field.

Langmuir and Langmuir Blodgett films of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanocrystals coated with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS). J Colloid Interface Sci 2021; 600:784-793. [PMID: 34051466 DOI: 10.1016/j.jcis.2021.05.085] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/14/2021] [Revised: 05/03/2021] [Accepted: 05/15/2021] [Indexed: 11/22/2022]
Abstract
HYPOTHESIS The type and properties of ligands capping nanoparticles affect the characteristics of corresponding Langmuir and Langmuir-Blodgett films. When ligands are firmly anchored to the surface, as in zinc oxide nanocrystallites (ZnO NCs), compression at the air/water interface might cause ligands interdigitation and then the formation of supra-structures. Here, we evaluate how the introduction of bulky ligands, namely polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSSs), influences the self-assembly of POSS@ZnO NCs and the properties of corresponding thin films. EXPERIMENTS ZnO NCs capped with asymmetrical POSS derivatives are prepared via a one-pot two-step self-supporting organometallic (OSSOM) method. POSS@ZnO NCs are characterized by employing STEM, DLS, TGA, NMR, IR, UV-VIS, and photoluminescence spectroscopy. Changes in surface pressure, surface potential, and morphology (using BAM) are recorded upon compression at the air/water interface. Films transferred onto solid substrates are examined utilizing XRR and AFM. FINDINGS All studied POSS@ZnO NCs form stable Langmuir films. POSSs prevent the interdigitation of ligands capping neighboring NCs. Thus, POSS@ZnO NCs films resemble those composed of classical amphiphiles but without any visible structural source of amphiphilicity. We suggest that the core provides enough hydrophilicity to anchor NCs at the air/water interface. POSS ligands provide enough hydrophobicity for the NCs not to disperse into the subphase upon compression.

Abstract
The surface organic ligands have profound effect on modulation of different physicochemical parameters as well as toxicological profile of semiconductor nanocrystals (NCs). Zinc oxide (ZnO) is one of the most versatile semiconductor material with multifarious potential applications and systematic approach to in-depth understand the interplay between ZnO NCs surface chemistry along with physicochemical properties and their nano-specific toxicity is indispensable for development of ZnO NCs-based devices and biomedical applications. To this end, we have used recently developed the one-pot self-supporting organometallic (OSSOM) approach as a model platform to synthesize a series of ZnO NCs coated with three different alkoxyacetate ligands with varying the ether tail length which simultaneously act as miniPEG prototypes. The ligand coating influence on ZnO NCs physicochemical properties including the inorganic core size, the hydrodynamic diameter, surface charge, photoluminescence (quantum yield and decay time) and ZnO NCs biological activity toward lung cells was thoroughly investigated. The resulting ZnO NCs with average core diameter of 4-5 nm and the hydrodynamic diameter of 8-13 nm exhibit high photoluminescence quantum yield reaching 33% and a dramatic slowing down of charge recombination up to 2.4 µs, which is virtually unaffected by the ligand's character. Nano-specific ZnO NCs-induced cytotoxicity was tested using MTT assay with normal (MRC-5) and cancer (A549) human lung cell lines. Noticeably, no negative effect has been observed up to the NCs concentration of 10 µg/mL and essentially very low negative toxicological impact could be noticed at higher concentrations. In the latter case, the MTT data analysis indicate that there is a subtle interconnection between inorganic core-organic shell dimensions and toxicological profile of ZnO NCs (strikingly, the NCs coated by the carboxylate bearing a medium ether chain length exhibit the lowest toxicity level). The results demonstrate that, when fully optimized, our organometallic self-supporting approach can be a highly promising method to obtain high-quality and bio-stable ligand-coated ZnO NCs.

Abstract
The unambiguous characterization of the coordination chemistry of nanocrystal surfaces produced by wet-chemical synthesis presently remains highly challenging. Here, zinc oxide nanocrystals (ZnO NCs) coated by monoanionic diphenyl phosphate (DPP) ligands were derived by a sol-gel process and a one-pot self-supporting organometallic (OSSOM) procedure. Atomic-scale characterization through dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP-)enhanced solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy has notably enabled resolving their vastly different surface-ligand interfaces. For the OSSOM-derived NCs, DPP moieties form stable and strongly-anchored μ2 - and μ3 -bridging-ligand pairs that are resistant to competitive ligand exchange. The sol-gel-derived NCs contain a wide variety of coordination modes of DPP ligands and a ligand exchange process takes place between DPP and glycerol molecules. This highlights the power of DNP-enhanced ssNMR for detailed NC surface analysis and of the OSSOM approach for the preparation of ZnO NCs.

Abstract
The unique optical properties of zinc oxide nanocrystals (ZnO NCs) are strongly dependent on both the properties and the composition of the inorganic core-organic ligand interface. Developing a novel organometallic self-supporting approach, we report on the synthesis and characterization of ZnO nanocrystals coated by chiral monoanionic aminoalcoholate ligands. The resulting ZnO NCs are both chiroptically active and possess size dependent optical properties. The size and in consequence the emission color of the ZnO NCs could be simply adjusted by the characteristic of the aminoalcohol used.

Abstract
A new possibility for the formation of macroscopic and photoactive structures from zinc oxide nanocrystals is described. Photoactive freely suspended and free-standing films of macroscopic area (up to few square millimeters) and submicrometer thickness (up to several hundreds of nanometers) composed of carboxylate ligand-coated zinc oxide nanocrystallites (RCO2-ZnO NCs) of diameter less than 5 nm are prepared according to a modified Langmuir-Schaefer method. First, the suspension of RCO2-ZnO NCs is applied onto the air/water interface. Upon compression, the films become turbid and elastic. The integrity of such structures is ensured by interdigitation of ligands stabilizing ZnO NCs. Great elasticity allows transfer of the films onto a metal frame as a freely suspended film. Such membranes are afterward extracted from the supporting frame to form free-standing films of macroscopic area. Because the integrity of the films is maintained by ligands, no abolishment of quantum confinement occurs, and films retain spectroscopic properties of initial RCO2-ZnO NCs. The mechanism of formation of thin films of RCO2-ZnO NCs at the air/water interface is discussed in detail.
