Silsesquioxanes as versatile organic–inorganic hybrids with terminal siloxyl sites have been utilized to construct diverse metallasilsesquioxane complexes, yet their niche in silver nanoclusters remains largely unexplored. Herein, we report the first silsesquioxane-protected superatomic silver nanocluster, [Ag 40 (Ph…

ABSTRACT Metal nanoclusters (NCs) with atomically precise structures are widely used for light energy conversion in photocatalysis. However, the challenges in utilizing the photogenerated charges and light‐induced photocatalyst instability often result in poor photocatalytic performance. Herein, we investigate tailori…

The excited-state properties of metal nanoclusters have attracted considerable attention for potential applications in optoelectronics and biomedicine. However, the theoretical exploration of these properties, particularly emission mechanisms, remains challenging due to the high computational cost of excited-state str…

Abstract The construction of high‐nuclearity, atomically precise copper(I)‐alkyne nanoclusters remains a formidable challenge due to their high reactivity and strong aggregation tendency. Here, we report a hydrogen‐bonding‐assisted assembly strategy that enables the ambient‐condition synthesis of two robust copper(I)‐…

In this work, perovskite nanowires are encapsulated by gold nanoparticle clusters in a polymer matrix to enable the confinement of surface plasmons from the metal nanoclusters in subwavelength regions, resulting in an intense electromagnetic field concentration. This strong light-matter interaction manipulates the flu…

In the present study, first cis and trans-lumogallion, then the interaction of its trans isomer with gallium +1 and +3 cations (one by one) in vacuum conditions have been investigated within the constraints of density functional theory at the level of B3LYP/6-31++G(d,p). The collected data revealed that all the struct…

Abstract Carbon quantum dots (CQDs) have entered the world of food science and technology (FST) as a low-cost, sustainable, biodegradable, and functional nanoparticle alternative. In the last 5 years, a large number of articles (more than 100) regarding CQD synthesis from food waste and its valorization in FST were pu…
