The preparation of metal nanoclusters through light–matter interaction is an unexplored realm nanomaterials research. A comprehensive understanding the stages involved in growth process scant literature. Herein, we report photoinduced formation yellow-emissive copper (Y-CuNCs) from a binuclear complex [Cu2(SPhCl)2(PPh3)4], which was subsequently observed to undergo conversion green-emissive (G-CuNCs). We were able characterize intermediate complexes, fragments, and formed process, attributed precursors for CuNCs. To initially Cu2(SPhCl)2(PPh3)4, irradiation with ultraviolet (UV) light (λ ∼ 365 nm) resulted Y-CuNCs. Further, upon solution Y-CuNCs UV light, convert G-CuNCs via intercluster conversion. both CuNCs has been extensively studied UV–vis absorption features, photoluminescence studies, lifetime measurements. confirmed help transmission electron microscopy images, electrospray ionization mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS) analysis, 31P NMR data analysis. Moreover, plausible mechanism also substantiated ESI-MS

Abstract The low cost and fine‐tunability of the luminescence copper nanoclusters make them attractive candidates for opto‐electronic, imaging, sensing applications; their stability, a precise understanding structure–function correlations however, continue to be challenging. A comprehensive chemical etching strategy is developed synthesize orange, blue, cyan emitting from single source ultrasmall nanoparticles; high quantum yields up ≈34% are realized. Steady state time‐resolved spectroscopy, electron microscopy, resolution mass spectrometry, computational modeling provide critical mechanistic insight into polychromatic luminescence. facile method fabrication polymer nanocomposite thin films that sustain stabilize luminescent presented. subtle variation without need admix multiple components, provides white with Commission Internationale de l'éclairage (CIE) coordinates, x = 0.35, y 0.33. highlights this work i) simple solution synthesis stable, uniform, pure Cu nanoparticles, ii) by variations in an optimized protocol produce highly luminescent, nanoclusters, including white‐emitting ones, iii) stabilization bright systems films, iv) detailed analysis tuning.
