That being said, the closest thing I have been able to find is the book "Nanoscale materials in chemistry" edited by Kenneth Klabunde. The book is reviewed here: http://dx.doi.org/10.1021/ja0252072 Hope that helps!

Maybe Yoe knows... I'm looking for a nice review/perspective on the current state of nanochemistry - nanotechnology in particular. Any suggestions... :) I asked this on twitter the other day.

I’m looking for a nice review/perspective on the current state of nanochemistry – nanotechnology in particular. Any suggestions… :)

I'll pass them on to Yoe. I look forward to the day when the world is able to know what you are up to with your super-hot tube furnace :-) haha, thanks Fleaker for your suggestions.

Hydrogen isn't necessary as the halides will all disproportionate. Perhaps use Si nanowires as template. Fleaker uses his much bigger and even hotter tube furnace for something similar, unfortunately it makes him money so he can't say :/ Yoe needs to try this with precious metal halides and see if he can’t form some interesting specimens that way…perhaps with enhanced properties.

Nicely done :) Those are some really cool looking SEM images… and some really nasty looking fingers…
