Abstract

Silver nanoclusters are a class of fluorophores with attractive features, including brightness, photostability and subnanometer size. In this review we overview the different scaffolds that are used as stabilizer for silver nanoclusters (e.g.polymers, dendrimers, DNA oligomers, cryogenicnoble gas matrixes, inorganic glasses,zeolites andnanoparticles), and we briefly discuss the recent advances.
