Nanocrystalline particulate films , dispersions of nanoparticles in monolayers in which the inter‐particle distances can be controlled, and systems containing nanoparticles incorporated between the head groups of organic thin films (see Fig.) produced using a wet colloid‐chemical approach are reviewed. Size‐quantized metallic, magnetic, and semiconducting particles are cosnidered and the development of nanostructured devices discussed.
