• (e.g., Al3+). Here, we present first steps towards n-doped ZnO-based TCO materials via substitution in the anion lattice (O2− versus halogenides). A special approach is presented, using novel single-source precursors containing a potential excerpt of the target lattice 'HalZn·Zn3O3' preorganized on the

So-called molecular single-source precursors (MSSPs) contain, on the molecular level, all required elements for the final

• individual cluster cores, hence containing only one Pt atom in each nanoparticle. The use of single source precursors was thus adequate for the formation of heterometal nanoparticles. The presence of both metals within a single ultrasmall, non-crystalline nanoparticle is proven, which is not amenable to XRD
