Suppression of kernel vibrations by layer-by-layer ligand engineering boosts photoluminescence efficiency of gold nanoclusters
The photoluminescence of gold nanoclusters is affected by low-frequency acoustic vibrations. Here, the authors demonstrate that layer-by-layer ligand engineering can suppress such structural vibrations to achieve brighter emissions.
