Abstract: Supercrystals of lead-halide perovskite nanocrystals combine the semiconducting properties of bulk perovskites with quantum confinement effects and extend them to the macroscopic scale. Supercrystals assembled via a two-layer phase diffusion process using an acetonitrile antisolvent were recently shown to be unusually robust. We investigate how the acetonitrile-assisted self-assembly process influences surface chemistry, the atomic lattice of nanocrystals, and the structure of the supercrystal. Using quantitative NMR spectroscopy,nanofocused X-ray diffraction, and optical spectroscopy, we show that a reduced density of the ligand shell caused by the exposure to acetonitrile in the assembly underlies the mechanical robustness of these supercrystals. Ligand stripping further drives a highly size-selecting lateral growth of the supercrystal and induces anisotropic relaxation of the nanocrystal atomic lattice while preserving the electronic coupling and robust light-emitting properties of the assembly. That enables the mechanical manipulation of supercrystals such as stacking, thereby opening new avenues for integration into optoelectronic devices.
