Abstract:Au nanomaterials are known to change their properties significantly depending on their particle size. The prepared chloride glasses exhibited yellow emission (520 nm) upon UV rays (250 nm) irradiation, and the intensity of emission was found to decrease with X-ray dose. We concluded that this is because luminescent Au nanoclusters (AuNCs) of a few nanometers in size grow into Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) of a few tens of nanometers in size due to the photoreduction effect induced by irradiating X-ray, and the abso… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
