Fig. 6: Excited-state dynamics of Au36(DMBT)24 nanoclusters.

Femtosecond-resolved transient absorption data recorded from a Au36(DMBT)24-2D and b Au36(DMBT)24-1D. Spectral features of different delay components derived from global fitting analysis for c Au36(DMBT)24-2D and d Au36(DMBT)24-1D. e Femtosecond-resolved and f nanosecond-resolved dynamic traces of the two nanoclusters.
