Metal Doping of Au25(SR)18- Clusters : Insights and Hindsights
2019
The structure, properties, and applications of atomically precise gold nanoclusters are the object of active research worldwide. Over the last few years, research has been also focusing on selective doping of metal nanoclusters through introduction of foreign-metal atoms. Doping has been studied for several clusters, especially the atomically precise Au25(SR)18. Doping has been carried out with noble metals, such as platinum, and less noble metals, such as cadmium and mercury, also because of the ease by which monodoping can be achieved with these metals. Previous studies, which relied extensively on the use of mass spectrometry and single crystal X-ray crystallography, led to assign the sp…
