Abstract

clusters, which exhibit significant structural differences from the parent cluster. Both the homo and alloy clusters display dual-emission properties at 298 K, with the clusters additionally showcasing triple or even quadruple emission at 77 K. This work is anticipated to stimulate research interest in hydride-containing metal nanoclusters, focusing not only on compositional tailoring and structural engineering, but also on electronic structure details and potential applications.
