Fig. 1: Structure anatomies of M40(SPhCl2)24 and M44(SPhCl2)30 (M = Au/Ag/Cu).
From: A reasonable approach for the generation of hollow icosahedral kernels in metal nanoclusters
a–d Structure anatomy of M40(SPhCl2)24: a M40-S1: the tetrahedral M4 kernel; b M40-S2: the M24 shell; c M40-S3: the Cu12(SR)24 surface; and d The overall structure of M40(SPhCl2)24. e–h Structure anatomy of M44(SPhCl2)30. e M44-S1: the hollow icosahedral M12 kernel; f M44-S2: the M20 shell; g M40-S3: the M12(SR)30 surface; and h The overall structure of M44(SPhCl2)30. Color labels: orange/light blue/blue/green, Ag or Cu atoms at different positions; red, S. All C and H atoms are omitted for clarity.
