Area of Science:

  • Materials Science
  • Nanotechnology
  • Computational Chemistry

Background:

  • Electrode material and interface engineering are critical for charge transport in implantable devices.
  • Silver electrodes offer high conductivity, while gold nanoclusters can modify interfaces.
  • Atomically precise gold nanoclusters are emerging as promising interface modifiers.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate charge transport at nanocluster-electrode interfaces using model systems.
  • To evaluate the impact of doping in gold nanoclusters on interfacial electronic structure and conductivity.
  • To explore strategies for enhancing interfacial transport efficiency in electrode design.

Main Methods:

  • Density functional theory-nonequilibrium Green's function (DFT-NEGF) calculations.
  • Neuroevolution potential-based molecular dynamics (NEP-MD) simulations.
  • Construction and analysis of Ag-X-Ag (X = Au25CH3, Au24CdCH3, Au24CuCH3) model systems.

Main Results:

  • Relaxed gold nanocluster structures at the interface show enhanced charge transport.
  • Dopant-induced geometric rearrangement and interfacial coupling improve conductivity.
  • Cadmium doping resulted in the most significant enhancement: stronger resonant transmission, higher density of states near the Fermi level, increased current, and reduced impedance.
  • Transport properties exhibited weak temperature dependence due to synergistic Ag electrode and nanocluster interaction.

Conclusions:

  • Atomically precise doping in gold nanoclusters is an effective method to boost interfacial transport efficiency.
  • Dopant position, particularly near the electrode, influences enhancement.
  • This provides a generalizable strategy for designing high-performance next-generation transport devices.
