Directional cross-linking of organic semiconductors (OSC) with nanocrystals (NC) produces superlattices exhibiting novel structural and electronic properties [1,2]. We will present the result of a study on the in-situ formation of conductive, iso-oriented mesocrystalline superstructures with cubic PbS NCs at the acetonitrile/air interface, investigated simultaneously by grazing incidence small angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS) and grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXD) in real-time [3]. We observe a continuous contraction of superlattices with elapsed time, preserving their superlattice symmetries and attribute these contractions to the complete replacement of native oleic acid ligands with small OSC cross-linker cobalt/copper tetraaminophthalocyanine [4]. Such investigations provide crucial visualizations into the formation mechanism of such nanostructures, which already find applications. [1] M. Scheele et al., Phys. Chem. Chem.
