. Nanocrystals have important applications in solar cells due to their size-tunable optical and electronic properties. The CdSe nanosphere interface has been thoroughly studied with respect to how different ligands attached to the surface change certain properties. Nanobelts and other 2-dimensional nanostructures are a newer focus for improving the efficiency of solar cells. An important question to ask is whether the same ligands we apply to nanospheres are as effective when bound to nanobelts. We exposed
