XAS characterisation of phosphine-capped gold clusters

Congratulations to Shailendra Sharma on his paper in Inorganics using X-ray absorption spectroscopy to characterise a series of phosphine-capped gold clusters. The study probes the electronic and geometric structure of Au₆, Au₉, Au₁₃, and Au₁₀₁ clusters, providing fundamental insight into how cluster size and ligand environment influence their electronic properties. Great work in collaboration with Bernt Johannessen at the Australian Synchrotron and Vladimir Golovko from Department of Chemistry at UC.
