DNA serves as a versatile template for few-atom silver clusters and their organized self-
assembly. These clusters possess unique structural and photophysical properties that are …

Fluorescent silver, gold and copper nanoclusters (NCs) have emerged for biosensor
development. Compared to semiconductor quantum dots, there is less concern about the …

DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters (AgN-DNAs) are known to have one or two DNA
oligomer ligands per nanocluster. Here, we present the first evidence that AgN-DNA species …

DNA can stabilize silver nanoclusters (Ag N-DNAs) whose atomic sizes and diverse
fluorescence colors are selected by nucleobase sequence. These programmable …

Rapid and precise screening of small genetic variations, such as single-nucleotide
polymorphisms (SNPs), among an individual's genome is still an unmet challenge at point-of …

Silver nanoclusters are a class of fluorophores with excellent physical and chemical
properties and have emerged as an attractive tool in biological applications. Using nucleic …

12 years after the introduction of DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs), exciting
progress has been made and yet we are still in the midst of trying to fully understand this …

Blue emitting gold nanoclusters templated by poly- cytosine DNA at low pH and poly-
adenine DNA at neutral pH - Chemical Communications (RSC Publishing) DOI:10.1039/C2CC32841K …

Fluorescent DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters contain both cationic and neutral silver
atoms. The absorbance spectra of compositionally pure solutions follow the trend expected …

Conspectus DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters (AgN-DNAs) are sequence-encoded
fluorophores. Like other noble metal nanoclusters, the optical properties of AgN-DNAs are …
