Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Since nanoclusters, consisting of several to a thousand atoms, can be regarded as minimum functional units, the physical properties are evaluated in order to fabricate functional nanocluster units such as metal-encapsulating silicon clusters and rare earth metal-organic molecular sandwich clusters, including the electronic properties of ordered organic molecular films. The main results are (1) preparation of composite films such as organic ligand-protected metal nanoclusters and metal-encapsulating silicon clusters, (2) spectroscopic evaluation of composite interfaces by ultrathin nanocluster films using a two-photon photoemission microscopy, and (3) elucidation of the catalytic activity mechanism of size selective platinum nanoclusters.
