TL;DR: Herein, a proof-of-concept is shown using GaN:ZnO loaded with Rh/Cr2O3 (core/shell) and Mn3O4 NPs as H2 and O2 evolution promoters, respectively, under irradiation with visible light (l> 420 nm).

TL;DR: A model is proposed to explain the recent finding that Au25 (SG)18 clusters are selectively formed during the reaction of triphenylphosphine-stabilized Au11 clusters and an excess amount of GSH.

TL;DR: In this paper, a simple method is proposed to control the size of alkanethiol-protected Au nanoparticles by heat treatment in the solid state, and the size evolution mechanism is discussed on the basis of the thermodynamic model.

TL;DR: In this article, a well dispersed and stable colloidal dispersions of polymer-protected Ni/Pd bimetallic nanoclusters have been obtained over an entire composition range by an improved polyol reduction method, in which nickel sulfate and palladium(II) acetate were reduced at high temperature by ethylene glycol in the presence of poly(N-vinyl-2pyrrolidone).

TL;DR: First direct observation of ferromagnetic spin polarization of Au nanoparticles with a mean diameter of 1.9 nm using x-ray magnetic circular dichroism (XMCD) evidences intrinsic spin polarization in nanosized gold.
