Title: Nanoscale Lacing by Electrons

Abstract

Abstract The ability to harness the optical or electrical properties of nanoscale particles depends on their assembly in terms of size and spatial characteristics which remains challenging due to lack of size focusing. Electrons provide a clean and focusing agent to initiate the assembly of nanoclusters or nanoparticles. Here an intriguing route is demonstrated to lace gold nanoclusters and nanoparticles in string assembly through electron‐initiated nucleation and aggregative growth of Au(I)‐thiolate motifs on a thin film substrate. This size‐focused assembly is demonstrated by controlling the electron dose under transmission electron microscopic imaging conditions. The Au(I)‐thiolate motifs, in combination with the molecularly mediated alignment, facilitate the interstring electrostatic and intrastring aurophilic interactions, which functions as a molecular template to aid electron‐initiated 1D lacing. The findings demonstrate a hierarchical route for the 1D assemblies with size and spatial tunable catalytic, optical, sensing, and diagnostic properties.

Electron Dose-Controlled Formation, Growth, and Assembly of Nanoclusters and Nanoparticles from Aurophilic Au(I)–Thiolate Ensemble on Surfaces

The ability to precisely control electron irradiationinduced formation, growth, and assembly of nanoclusters or nanoparticles on a solid surface is important for design and creation of catalytically or chemically active surface sites and interfaces free from chemical reducing agents. Here, we show the results of an investigation of the electron dose-controlled formation, growth, and assembly of nanoclusters and nanoparticles in a molecularly assembled thin film of Au(I)–thiolate motifs on a substrate, highlighting an in situ monitoring of the evolution of morphology under controlled electron dose. With aurophilic motifs of Au(I)–thiolate being confined by electrostatic interactions, the sizes of Au nanoclustersmore »« less

Understanding and Predicting Thiolated Gold Nanoclusters from First Principles

Journal Article Jiang, Deen - Acta Physico - Chimica Sinica

This is an exciting time for studying thiolated gold nanoclusters. Single crystal structures of Au{sub 102}(SR){sub 44} and Au{sub 25}(SR){sub 18}{sup -} (-SR being an organothiolate group) bring both surprises and excitement in this field. First principles density functional theory (DFT) simulations turn out to be an important tool to understand and predict thiolated gold nanoclusters. In this review, I summarize the progresses made by us and others in applying first principles DFT to thiolated gold nanoclusters, as inspired by the recent experiments. First, I will give some experimental background on synthesis of thiolated gold nanoclusters, followed by a descriptionmore »« less
The Smallest Thiolated Gold Superatom Complexes

Journal Article Jiang, Deen ; Whetten, Robert L ; Luo, Weidong ; ... - Journal of Physical Chemistry C

The superatom concept of metallic cluster valence is based on the electron-shell model as first proposed to explain the special stability of certain metal-atom clusters generated in the gas phase. It accounts for the magic-number series 2, 8, 18, 34, 58,... by shell-closing of the superatom orbitals 1S, 1P, 1D,.... Recently, the superatom-complex concept has been introduced to explain the compositions of high-yield gold-cluster compounds, especially Au{sub 25}(SR){sub 18}{sup -} and Au{sub 102}(SR){sub 44} (with -SR being a thiolate group), corresponding to the magic numbers of 8 and 58, respectively. Surprisingly, no thiolated gold cluster accounting for the first closingmore »« less

Beyond the staple motif: a new order at the thiolate–gold interface

Journal Article Hu, Guoxiang ; Jin, Rongchao ; Jiang, De-en - Nanoscale

Staple motifs in the form of –RS(AuSR)_x– (x = 1, 2, 3, etc.) are the most common structural feature at the interface of the thiolate-protected gold nanoclusters, Au_n(SR)_m. However, the recently solved structure of Au₉₂(SR)₄₄, in which the facets of the Au₈₄ core are protected mainly by the bridging thiolates, challenges the staple hypothesis. Herein, we explore the surface sensitivity of the thiolate–gold interface from first principles density functional theory. We find that the interfacial structures of thiolates on gold are surface sensitive: while a staple motif (such as –RS–Au–SR–) is preferred on Au(111), a bridging motif (–RS–) is preferredmore »« less
