Semiconductor structures having insulators coatings and methods of fabricating semiconductor structures having insulators coatings are described. In an example, a method of coating a semiconductor structure involves adding a silicon-containing silica precursor species to a solution of nanocrystals. The method also involves, subsequently, forming a silica-based insulator layer on the nanocrystals from a reaction involving the silicon-containing silica precursor species. The method also involves adding additional amounts of the silicon-containing silica precursor species after initial forming of the silica-based insulator layer while continuing to form the silica-based insulator layer to finally encapsulate each of the nanocrystals.
