- Description
- The image shows the crystal growth of an organic salt, the product of a failed synthesis. The goal was to co-crystallize the organic salt with metal halides and study their photophysical properties. However, I ended up with these yellow emissive flower-like crystals of the organic salt alone. I guess, even failed synthetic reactions can be beautiful!
