In this study, metal nanoparticles of 5d metals （Ir, Pt, and Au） and 4d metals （Ru, Rh, and Pd） were prepared and capped with ethynylphenylacetylene and the impacts of the number of metal d electrons on the nanoparticle optoelectronic properties were examined. Both FTIR and photoluminescence measurements indicate that intraparticle charge delocalization was en- hanced with the increase of the number of d electrons in the same period with palladium being an exception.展开更多
