R. Lee Penn and Jillian F. Banfield "Imperfect Oriented Attachment: Dislocation Generation in Defect-Free Nanocrystals" Science 281 (5379) : 969-971. (1998) (in Reports)

Description:

Transmission electron microscope images (lower resolution on top, lattice fringe image below) of nanoparticles that have self-oriented with respect to each other and assembled to form an elongate single crystal. This growth mechanism contrasts with the classical atom-by-atom growth pathway.
