Toward an Atomic-Level Understanding of Size-Specific Properties of Protected and Stabilized Gold Clusters

Open access
Tsukuda, Tatsuya·2012·Bulletin of the Chemical Society of Japan

Abstract

Metal clusters consisting of fewer than 100 atoms (diameter <2 nm) are highly promising as a new class of building units for functional materials because of their novel and size-dependent properties. Nevertheless, basic and applied studies of metals clusters have been hampered by the lack of specific guidelines for design and precise synthetic methods. This account surveys recent investigations of gold clusters focusing on our effort toward an atomic-level understanding and control of their size-specific properties. We have developed a size-controlled method for synthesizing gold clusters protected by ligands, stabilized by polymers, and supported on solids. Remarkable size-effects on stabilities and various properties including catalysis were observed. Their mechanisms are discussed based on fundamental knowledge of bare gold clusters in the gas phase.

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.
