Abstract

A method of forming crystalline semiconducting layers on low melting or low softening point substrates includes the steps of providing an aqueous solution medium including a plurality of semiconductor nanoparticles dispersed therein having a median size less than 10 nm, and applying the solution medium to at least one region of a substrate to be coated. The substrate has a melting or softening point of
