Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Catalysis

Background:

  • Developing stable copper nanoclusters (Cu-NCs) with near-infrared (NIR) emission for catalysis is challenging.
  • Atomically precise nanoclusters offer unique properties but require tailored synthesis.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To synthesize a novel bimetallic copper-palladium nanocluster (Cu/Pd NC) with NIR emission.
  • To investigate its luminescent properties and catalytic activity.

Main Methods:

  • Synthesis of an atomically precise bimetallic Cu/Pd NC (Cu16Pd1).
  • Single-crystal X-ray crystallographic analysis.
  • Photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) measurements.
  • Catalytic reduction of 4-nitrophenol.

Main Results:

  • Successfully synthesized Cu16Pd1 with a defined structure.
  • Achieved strong NIR emission (λem > 800 nm) with the highest PLQY among Cu NCs/alloys.
  • Demonstrated catalytic activity in the reduction of 4-nitrophenol.
  • Attributed NIR emission to supramolecular interactions.

Conclusions:

  • This work presents a novel method for synthesizing Cu/Pd NCs.
  • The bimetallic Cu16Pd1 is a promising NIR luminescent material and catalyst.
  • Highlights the potential of less-studied Cu/Pd NCs in nanotechnology.
