Description:

This review showcases the unique features and implications of wet-processed thin films of nanocrystals, spanning from assembly technics to applications. Assembly methods include affordable and scalable adsorption approaches (i) such as Langmuir-Blodgett (LB) method, layer-by-layer (LbL), spin coating, automated one-drop assembly, and spontaneous self-assembly. Electrochemical deposition approaches (ii) are also described since they offer a complementary route for spatially specific thin film deposition and for designing electrochemical devices. Both adsorption and electrochemistry-based approaches have utilized a wide variety of pre-formed nanocrystals (e.g. nanoparticles, two-dimensional materials, perovskites, nanocellulose …) with a 0D, 1D or 2D dimension. Yet, ionic precursors were also used, enabling the formation of nanocrystals in situ (iii).
