Metal-containing clusters have attracted increasing attention over the past 2–3 decades.
This intense interest can be attributed to the fact that these discrete metal aggregates, whose …

Atomically precise pieces of matter of nanometer dimensions composed of noble metals are
new categories of materials with many unusual properties. Over 100 molecules of this kind …

In the past decades, great strides have been made in the synthesis of hybrid nanocrystals
(HNCs) consisting of two or more disparate subunits (such as metals and/or …

Atomically-precise noble metal nanoclusters have raised nanomaterials research to new
heights by merit of their distinct structural, optical and electronic properties, which can be …

Unprecedented double S2− templated Ag27 clusters have been stabilized by 5, 10, 15, 20‐
tetra (4‐pyridyl) porphyrin (TPyP‐H2) ligands to afford a robust 2D metal–organic framework …

The review presents a bird-eye view on the state of research in the field of giant
nonbiological discrete metal complexes and ions of nanometer size, which are structurally …

The formation of high‐nuclearity silver (I) clusters remains elusive and their potential
applications are still underdeveloped. Herein, we firstly prepared a chain‐like thiolated AgI …

To realize the molecular design of new functional silver (I) clusters, a new synthetic
approach has been proposed, by which the weakly coordinating ligands NO3–in a Ag20 …

Nanoparticulate functional materials offer manifold perspectives for the increasing
miniaturization and complexity of technical developments. Nanoparticles also make a major …

Determining the structures of nanoparticles at atomic resolution is vital to understand their
structure–property correlations. Large metal nanoparticles with core diameter beyond 2 nm …
