Semiconductor nanocrystals of different sizes and shapes can govern the optical and electrical properties of materials. Liquid cell transmission electron microscopy (LCTEM) is an emerging method to observe nanoscale chemical transformations and inform the precise synthesis of nanostructures with expected structural features. Researchers are investigating the reactions of semiconductor nanocrystals with the method to study the highly reactive environment produced via liquid radiolysis during the process.
