1. A method for manufacturing Group-III nitride semiconductor nanoparticles having a particle size of 16 nm or less, the method comprising:
forming a precursor by treating trimethylindium with a coordination solvent; and
after forming the precursor, synthesizing h Group-III nitride semiconductor nanoparticles having the particle size of 16 nm or less, the synthesizing comprising reacting one or more Group-III elements, including the precursor, with a metal amide as a nitrogen material, at a temperature of 100° C. or higher in a liquid phase wherein, in the synthesizing, the one or more Group-III elements further include at least one of trimethylgallium and trimethylaluminum.
