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 …

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 …

The interactions of materials with light determine their applications in various fields. In the
past decade, ultrasmall metal nanoclusters (NCs) have emerged as a promising class of …

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-stabilized silver nanoclusters (DNA-AgNCs) are biocompatible emitters with intriguing
properties. However, they have not been extensively used for bioimaging applications due …

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

Noble metal nanoclusters protected with carboranes, a 12-vertex, nearly icosahedral boron–
carbon framework system, have received immense attention due to their different …

We report the synthesis and structure of the first all-carboxylate-protected superatomic silver
nanocluster. It was prepared by heating a dimethylformamide solution of perfluoroglutaric …

DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters with 10–30 silver atoms are by construction ideal
candidates for biocompatible bright fluorescent emitters, but their electronic structure is not …

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