First-Principles Investigation of Ag-Doped Gold Nanoclusters

First-Principles Investigation of Ag-Doped Gold Nanoclusters

Gold nanoclusters have the tunable optical absorption property, and are promising for cancer cell imaging, photothermal therapy and radiotherapy. First-principle is a very powerful tool for design of novel materials. In the present work, structural properties, band gap engineering and tunable optica...
