Supercrystallisation of CdS nanorods (10 nm × 25 nm) into perpendicular superlattices was obtained by controlled evaporation of a nanorod solution trapped between a smooth substrate and a block of highly ordered pyrolytic graphite (HOPG). Hexagonal oriented domains, 2 μm2 in size were routinely obtained on a variety of substrates without external electric fields.
