Abstract Highly reflective biogenic crystals such as guanine have potential as biocompatible alternatives to toxic inorganic optical materials. However, controlling the structural and optical properties of these sparingly soluble crystals in vitro is challenging. Engineered microbial cells have been used widely to generate high-value metabolites, but the biosynthesis of functional crystalline materials has not been achieved.

Preparation of POM-Complexed NCs POM-complexed ε-MnO 2 NCs 1 ( Figure 1 a) were prepared by adding MnO 4– to a hot aqueous solution of [AlCr III W 11 O 39 ] 6– , and refluxing under air for 2 h (see Experimental section and Figure S1 ). After workup, the yield of 1 was 46.2%, based on Mn. Cryo-TEM images of these samples revealed individual particles with an average size of 2.7 ± 0.2 nm ( Figure 1 b and Figure S2 ).

Introduction Click to copy section linkSection link copied! In recent decades, a wide variety of ligand-stabilized NPs have been prepared and crystallized into many different superlattices (SLs), (1−7) and even quasicrystals. (8) Through combined experimental and modeling studies, (9) it has been revealed (5) how the NP type and morphology, (10) ligand type and size, (2) NP concentration, solvent type, and temperature (11−13) can affect the crystalline phase (12) and polymorphism.
