Luminescent Metal Nanoclusters with Aggregation-Induced Emission

Abstract

Thiolate-protected metal nanoclusters (or thiolated metal NCs) have recently emerged as a promising class of functional materials because of their well-defined molecular structures and intriguing molecular-like properties. Recent developments in the NC field have aimed at exploring metal NCs as novel luminescent materials in the biomedical field because of their inherent biocompatibility and good photoluminescence (PL) properties. From the fundamental perspective, recent advances in the field have also aimed at addressing the fundamental aspects of PL properties of metal NCs, shedding some light on developing efficient strategies to prepare highly luminescent metal NCs. In this Perspective, we discuss the physical chemistry of a recently discovered aggregation-induced emission (AIE) phenomenon and show the significance of AIE in understanding the PL properties of thiolated metal NCs. We then explore the unique physicochemical properties of thiolated metal NCs with AIE characteristics and highlight some recent developments in synthesizing the AIE-type luminescent metal NCs. We finally discuss perspectives and directions for future development of the AIE-type luminescent metal NCs.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
