Abstract:
Diphosphine-induced structural transformation was performed to modify the local structure of Au44, leading to the formation of an Au40 nanocluster. The regular box-like morphology of Au44 is converted into a sharp shape for Au40. This change in morphology results in the activity enhancement of Au40 in the photocatalytic degradation of rhodamine B.
