"lower temperature, more uniform, efficient manufacture... molecules aligned to preferred orientation leading to elasticity, producing considerable elastic strains, enabling precisely controlled size/ shape using liquid crystal as antisolvent, then replacing antisolvent with iquid crystal maintaining other synthesis conditions... uniform-size mass production without additional purification... ligands bind more densely to surface during nanocrystals formation, minimizing surface defects/ enhancing luminescence...
