Redox properties of self-assembled gold nanoclusters.
The redox properties of a monolayer of alkanethiolate-protected gold nanoclusters (MPCs) constructed on a gold slide electrode was studied in 1,2-dichloroethane (DCE) electrolyte solutions. The influence of the electrostatic interaction between attached MPCs and the substrate electrode on the absolute standard redox potential of MPCs was theoretically considered and studied experimentally.
