Understanding and controlling defect formation during the assembly of nanoparticles is crucial for fabrication of self-assembled nanostructured materials with predictable properties. Here, time-resolved small-angle X-ray scattering was used to probe the temporal evolution of strain and lattice contraction during evaporation-induced self-assembly of oleate-capped iron oxide nanocubes in a levitating drop. We show that the evolution of the strain and structure of the growing mesocrystals is relate ...[more]
