Fig. 2

a, c, d Large micron-sized composite nanocrystal structures with pronounced fault lines that separate lattice domains that are in near-alignment as demonstrated by their respective FFTs (b, e); zoom-in of the grain boundaries that span one or two molecular distances between the individual domains (f). The inset in panel (f) demonstrates the high degree of lattice order within each separate domain: domain 2 shown as representative example. Scalebar is 50 nm in panels a, c and d, and 25 nm in panel (f). White arrows in the FFT’s correspond to a resolution of 6.6 nm.
