Adjustable Polychromatic Fluorescence: Investigating the Photoluminescent Properties of Copper Nanoclusters

Key Laboratory of Radiopharmaceuticals, Ministry of Education, College of Chemistry, Beijing Normal University, Beijing 100875, China

Received Date: 1 August 2023
Revised Date: 7 September 2023

Copper nanoclusters (CuNCs) were synthesized using glutathione and cysteine as ligands, respectively. According to the photoluminescence mechanisms of CuNCs, we investigated the effects of various factors on their photoluminescence properties, including ligands, radicals, pH, solvents, and temperature. Based on these findings, a Copper Nanoclusters Photofluorescence Kit was successfully developed. The kit is portable, safe, and applicable across a broad range of public science education scenarios, effectively engaging the public’s interest in nanomaterials and actively enhancing their understanding of the charm of chemistry.
