The search for feasible strategies to construct high-nuclear silver clusters has been
attracting continuous interests because such materials not only exhibit aesthetic structures …

Monolayer-protected noble metal clusters, also called nanoclusters, can be produced with
the atomic precision and in large-scale quantity and are playing an increasingly important …

Mass spectrometry (MS) is widely used in molecular science, and is now emerging as a
characterization technique for ultra-small nanoparticles. In the field of atomically precise …

Ligated silver and gold nanoclusters belonging to a non-scalable size regime with molecular-

The linear and nonlinear optical properties of metal nanoparticles are highly tunable by
variation of parameters such as particle size, shape, composition, and environment. To fully …

Metal quantum clusters are evolving as excellent systems for a wide range of biological
applications due to their small size (∼ 2 nm), tunable optical properties, including optical …
