The possible role of metal carbonyl clusters in nanoscience and nanotechnologies

摘要: Although a few nanosized metal carbonyl clusters were already obtained in the seventies, these structurally and compositionally well-defined molecules attracted interest of nanoscientists only as possible precursors finely dispersed particles for heterogeneous catalysis. This review article has aim to give brief account most recent results field high-nuclearity their emerging properties. In doing that, look related behaviour ligand-stabilised ligand-free clusters, including almost mono-dispersed nanoparticles, is given. At end, we will deliberately venture some speculations on contribution aspects nanoscience nanotechnologies.
