Here, we report the synthesis of dopamine (DA)-mediated Au-Ag bimetallic nanoclusters in aqueous solution under UV activation. The success story emerges from monometallic fluorescent nanocluster evolution from photoactivation of gold as well as silver precursor compounds along with DA. The intriguing fluorescence property of the nanocluster relates to facile incorporation of Ag in Au, showing a 6-fold enhancement of the emission profile than simply DA-mediated Au nanoclusters. Silver effect, whi ...[more]
