Abstract
Second-order nonlinear optical scattering properties of Ag 25 nanoclusters are strongly affected by the nature of the metal dopant. Also, hyperpolarizabilities are one order higher than the one reported for Au 25 nanoclusters and represent the largest values ever reported for nanoclusters.
