Metal nanoclusters fill the gap between discrete atoms and plasmonic nanoparticles,
providing unique opportunities for investigating the quantum effects and precise structure …

Metal nanoclusters (NCs), which are composed of about 250 or fewer metal atoms, possess
great potential as novel functional materials. Fundamental research on metal NCs gradually …

The molecular and supramolecular chemistry of atomically precise nanoclusters
encompasses intra-cluster growth, inter-cluster assembly, and cluster-based host-guest …

Ligand-protected metal nanoclusters (NCs) are ultrasmall particles (< 3 nm) that represent
the molecular state of metal materials. Owing to their molecule-like structure—particularly …

“Core sliding” in metal nanoclusters drives the reconstruction of external structural units and
provides an ideal platform for mapping their precise transformation mechanism and …

The reduction of alkynyl‐silver and phosphine‐silver precursors with a weak reducing
reagent Ph2SiH2 led to the formation of a novel silver nanocluster [Ag93 (PPh3) 6 (C≡ CR) …

Ligand-protected metal nanoclusters controlled by atomic accuracy (ie atomically precise
metal NCs) have recently attracted considerable attention as active sites in heterogeneous …

The structurally precise alloy nanoclusters have been emerged as a burgeoning
nanomaterial for their unique physical/chemical features. We here report a rod-like …

Metal nanoclusters (NCs) have a particle size of about one nanometer, which makes them
the smallest unit that can give a function to a substance. In addition, metal NCs possess …

The specific states of aggregation of metal atoms in sub‐nanometer‐sized gold clusters are
related to the different quantum confinement volumes of electrons, leading to novel optical …
