A first principles density functional investigation of ligand-protected eight atom gold nanoclusters
Based on first principles density functional calculations we have studied the effect of ligand attachment on eight atom gold clusters of two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) geometries. Recent experimental synthesis of this magic numbered cluster using glutathione [Muhammed et al., Nano R...
