Abstract

Research was conducted to examine a monolayer-protected Au cluster (MPC) based on a monolayer of thiolated polymer that was chosen for its potential to yield improved core stabilization and to induce aqueous solubility. The objective was to explore a polymer electrolyte nanophase organized around distributed metallic centers. Results demonstrate that a polymeric monolayer has resulted in characteristics that are uniquely different from alkanethiolate MPCs.
