Large Metal Chalcogenide Clusters and Their Ordered Superstructures via Solvothermal and Ionothermal Syntheses

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Clusters – Contemporary Insight in Structure and Bonding

Part of the book series: Structure and Bonding ((STRUCTURE,volume 174))

Abstract

Nanometre-scale metal chalcogenide clusters and materials derived from their regular spatial organization via covalent or other bonding interactions represent an important area of research, encompassing intricate structures and unique size-related electronic and physical properties. This chapter will summarize the structure and bonding principles in these systems, focusing on high nuclearity and discrete metal chalcogenide clusters, and will review the recent progress in their preparation using solvothermal and ionothermal approaches.
