Evolution from the plasmon to exciton state in ligand-protected atomically precise gold nanoparticles

The evolution from the metallic (or plasmonic) to molecular state in metal nanoparticles constitutes a central question in nanoscience research because of its importance in revealing the origin of metallic bonding and offering fundamental insights into the birth of surface plasmon resonance. Previou...
