Abstract:
Synergetic effects in Au-Ag bimetallic nanoclusters (BNCs) more favorably enhanced electrochemical redox induced electrochemiluminescence (ECL) over photoexcitation induced photoluminescence (PL); this not only led to Au-Ag BNCs with enhanced bandgap-engineered ECL compared to Au NCs, but it also generated surface-defect related ECL to enhance the total ECL intensity.
