Embedding hexanuclear tantalum bromide cluster {Ta6Br12} into SiO2 nanoparticles by reverse microemulsion method

Hexanuclear tantalum bromide cluster units [{Ta6Bri12}La6] (i = inner, a = apical, L = ligand OH or H2O) are embedded into SiO2 nanoparticles by a reverse microemulsion (RM) based method. [{Ta6Bri12}Bra2 (H2O)a4]·nH2O (noted TBH) and tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) are used as the starting cluster c...
