Graphical Abstract

Dopant-induced phenomena: Doping with sodium ions can stimulate the formation of monodisperse ultrathin La2O2S nanoplates with tunable self-assembled superstructures (see picture) and robust fluorescence in surfactant solutions by creating oxygen vacancies in the host lattice during sulfurization reactions.
