During the synthesis of inorganic materials nickel oxysulfide and nickel–cobalt hydroxide, clusters with well-defined structures—such as polyoxometalates—can co-assemble with nuclei to produce uniform binary assemblies. The resulting materials can, in turn, incorporate a third, and fourth, type of nanocluster deposited on their surface to form ternary and quaternary assemblies, respectively.
