Shape control of size-selected naked platinum nanocrystals

Tetrahedral nanocrystals are out-of-equilibrium structures whose growth mechanism is a long-standing open problem. Here, the authors show that pure Pt tetrahedral nanocrystals grow in the gas phase and single out the defect-mediated mechanism leading to the symmetry-breaking for tetrahedral growth.
