Abstract

We present chemical synthesis strategies for DNA-stabilized silver nanoclusters (AgN-DNAs) with near-infrared (NIR) emission in the biological tissue transparency windows. Elevated temperatures can significantly increase chemical yield of near-infrared nanoclusters. In most cases, basic pH favors near-infrared nanoclusters while micromolar amounts of NaCl inhibit their formation.
