Thiolate-Capped Gold Nanoclusters: Optical Properties and Synthetic Parameters

This database comprises 207 entries detailing various thiolate-capped gold nanoclusters (AuNCs), systematically compiled from the scientific literature. Each entry includes key physicochemical and experimental parameters: nanocluster size, ligand identity, number of gold atoms, solvent used, excitation and emission wavelengths, as well as synthesis conditions such as temperature, pH, and reaction time. Additionally, each data point is linked to its corresponding source via a DOI, providing traceability and facilitating further bibliographic exploration. This dataset serves as a comprehensive resource for researchers investigating structure–property relationships, optical behavior, and synthetic strategies of AuNCs, and can support data-driven modeling or machine learning approaches in nanomaterials science.
