Polymorphism in magic-sized Au144(SR)60 clusters
Gold nanoclusters are important nanomaterials but their structural assignment can be challenging if single crystals can’t be grown. Here, the authors use pair distribution function analysis of X-ray powder diffraction data for Au144(SR)60nanoclusters, and show that they exhibit polymorphism.
