oxide nanocrystals have the ability to absorb and release oxygen ions — a chemical reaction known as reduction oxidation, or redox, for short.
Olaf Walter, Karin Popa and Oliver Dieste Blanco, have devised a simple access to produce highly crystalline, reactive actinide
oxide nanocrystals.

«You need several control samples — a PbS
nanocrystal with lead
oxide precursor and another precursor that does not involve water during synthesis,» he says.
To achieve this, he used a
nanocrystal sample produced from lead chloride instead of lead
oxide, such that there was no way for water to be generated in the reaction with oleic acid.
