Atomically Precise Colloidal Metal Nanoclusters and Nanoparticles: Fundamentals and Opportunities
TL;DR: This review summarizes the major progress in the field, including the principles that permit atomically precise synthesis, new types of atomic structures, and unique physical and chemical properties ofatomically precise nanoparticles, as well as exciting opportunities for nanochemists to understand very fundamental science of colloidal nanoparticles.
Journal ArticleDOI
Chiral Inorganic Nanostructures
TL;DR: This review will cover both experiment and theory of chiral nanostructures starting with the origin and multiple components of mirror asymmetry of individual NPs and their assemblies, and shall consider four different types of chirality in nanostructure and related physical, chemical, and biological effects.

Super Atomic Clusters: Design Rules and Potential for Building Blocks of Materials
Puru Jena,Qiang Sun +1 more
TL;DR: This Review describes how different electron-counting rules can lead to the design of stable clusters, mimicking the chemistry of atoms, and highlights the potential of these "superatoms" as building blocks of cluster-assembled materials.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toward Active-Site Tailoring in Heterogeneous Catalysis by Atomically Precise Metal Nanoclusters with Crystallographic Structures.
TL;DR: This Review summarizes the progress in the utilization of atomically precise metal nanoclusters for catalysis, a new class of model catalysts that have enabled heterogeneous catalysis research at the single-atom and single-electron levels.
Journal ArticleDOI
The photoluminescent metal nanoclusters with atomic precision
TL;DR: Luminescent metal nanomaterials have attracted increasing research interest, and have emerged as one of the most attractive nano-materials as mentioned in this paper, due to their ultrasmall size, low toxicity, strong photoluminescence and ease with which they can be chemically modified.

Ab initio effective core potentials for molecular calculations. Potentials for the transition metal atoms Sc to Hg
P. Jeffrey Hay,Willard R. Wadt +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the Coulomb, exchange, and core-orthogonality effects of the chemically inert core electron in the transition metal atoms Sc to Hg have been replaced by the ab initio effective core potentials (ECP).

Synthesis of thiol-derivatised gold nanoparticles in a two-phase liquid-liquid system
TL;DR: Using two-phase reduction of AuCl4 by sodium borohydride in the presence of an alkanethiol, solutions of 1-3 nm gold particles bearing a surface coating of thiol have been prepared and characterised; this novel material can be handled as a simple chemical compound as mentioned in this paper.
