چکیده
Strongly luminescent silver nanoclusters with tunable emission are directly synthesized in organic polar and apolar solvents. We show that an amphiphilic polystyrene-block-poly(methacrylic acid) block copolymer can be universally used as their support medium. A remarkable similarity in spectroscopic properties is observed between these clusters and charge-transfer organic dyes.

Effect of salts, solvents and buffer on miRNA detection using DNA silver nanocluster (DNA/AgNCs) probes.
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small regulatory RNAs (size ~21 nt to ~25 nt) which regulate a variety of important cellular events in plants, animals and single cell eukaryotes. Especially because of their use in diagnostics of human diseases, efforts have been directed towards the invention of a rapid, simple and sequence selective detection method for miRNAs. Recently, we reported an innovative metho...
متن کاملUltrathin nondoped emissive layers for efficient and simple monochrome and white organic light-emitting diodes.
In this paper, highly efficient and simple monochrome blue, green, orange, and red organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs) based on ultrathin nondoped emissive layers (EMLs) have been reported. The ultrathin nondoped EML was constructed by introducing a 0.1 nm thin layer of pure phosphorescent dyes between a hole transporting layer and an electron transporting layer. The maximum external quantum ...
متن کاملAcid-base reactions in organic solvents; behavior of some halogenated derivatives of phenolsulfonephthalein with different classes of organic bases in benzene.
This paper, the second in a series concerning the use of indicator dyes to study the reactions of organic acids and bases in organic solvents, deals with halogen derivatives of phenolsulfonephthalein. Spectrophotometric data are given for mixtures of bromocresol green, bromophenol blue, iodophenol blue, and tetrabromophenol blue with primary, secondary, and tertiary aliphatic amines in benzene;...
متن کاملEnhanced emission of silver nanoclusters through quantitative phase transfer.
Silver nanoclusters composed of only a few metal atoms present appealing properties such as fluorescence. We have previously reported on aqueous solutions of this fluorophore using poly(methacrylic acid) as scaffold and their sensing properties. Here we report on the preparation of organic solutions of fluorescent silver nanoclusters by quantitative transfer from aqueous solution to an immiscib...
متن کاملControlled formation of emissive silver nanoclusters using rationally designed metal-binding proteins.
The metal-binding properties of rationally designed, synthetic proteins were used to prepare a series of emissive silver nanoclusters having predictable sizes and emission energies. Metal-binding α-helical coiled coils were designed to exist as peptide trimers, tetramers, and hexamers and found to uniquely bind 6, 8, and 12 Ag(+) ions, respectively. Subsequent treatment with a chemical reducing...
