Graphical Abstract

Arrested precipitation of In2S3 affords ultrathin hexagonal nanoplates with 0.76-nm thickness and controllable sizes of 22–63 nm. The pictures show (from left to right) TEM images of 63-nm nanoplates aligned parallel to a support, a side view of nanoplates, and 45-nm nanoplates self-assembled into microwires.
