• during synthesis. Detailed analysis of transmission electron microscope images confirmed that the photo-induced synthesis yielded a high crystallinity of the ZAIS nanocrystals with small variations in size and content. Keywords: low toxicity; self-assembly; visible-light-emitting nanocrystals; ZnS
