Multi-layer 3D Chirality and Double-Helical Assembly in a Copper Nanocluster with a Triple-Helical Cu-15 Core

Guanglei Dong et al.

Summary: This study presents an atom-precise 18-copper nanocluster (Cu18H) with a pseudo D-3-symmetrical triple-helical Cu-15 core. Cu18H exhibits unique multi-layered 3D chirality and forms an infinite double-stranded helix through intra-strand and inter-strand interactions. The hierarchical assemblies of Cu18H not only resemble the structure of DNA but also exhibit crystallization-induced emission enhancement and aggregation-induced emission enhancement effects, as well as efficient catalysis of electron transfer reactions.

Controllable spontaneous resolution in ultrasmall Cu-Ag bimetallic cluster ion pairs from achiral components

Jiao He et al.

Summary: The study reported bimetallic cluster ion pairs containing a quaternary phosphonium and an ultrasmall Cu2Ag3 anionic cluster protected by thiolates. Results indicate that racemic and homochiral crystallization in the cluster system could be controlled through fine-tuning internal achiral structural components.

Double-helical assembly of heterodimeric nanoclusters into supercrystals

Yingwei Li et al.

Summary: DNA has long been used as a template for constructing helical assemblies of inorganic nanoparticles, but achieving helices without biological ligands is challenging. Atomically precise nanoclusters protected by ligands demonstrate hierarchical structural complexity, similar to biomolecules. The newly synthesized homodimeric and heterodimeric gold nanoclusters self-assemble into superstructures, with heterodimeric clusters forming more complex helical superstructures driven by van der Waals interactions. The surrounding ligands on the clusters contribute to the assembly through paired steric interactions.

A double helical 4H assembly pattern with secondary hierarchical complexity in an Ag70 nanocluster crystal

Tao Chen et al.

Summary: Hierarchical assemblies of a new silver nanocluster, Ag-70-TPP, have been synthesized and characterized, showing a highly space-efficient double helical 4H close packing pattern directed by ligands. The chirality of Ag-70-TPP and van der Waals forces interactions between ligands play a key role in driving its arrangement, with observed interlocking of phosphine ligands contributing to the structure. This work provides important and unprecedented insights into the internal structure and crystallographic arrangement of nanoclusters.

Shell engineering to achieve modification and assembly of atomically-precise silver clusters

Yan Jin et al.

Summary: This review summarizes the progress in the preparation and structural determination of monolayer-protected silver clusters, focusing on the strategies and methods for precise modification and hierarchical assembly of silver clusters through shell engineering. The correlations between structure-property and structure-functionality of silver clusters are discussed, with particular emphasis on the structure-luminescence relationship and the potential of silver clusters as lighting materials. The challenges and perspectives of functional silver clusters are also highlighted, aiming to inspire the development of functionality-oriented materials based on nanosized building blocks in the fields of nanotechnology and material science.
