Abstract
The distinctive physicochemical attributes of ultra-small metal nanoclusters (MNCs) resembling those of molecules make them versatile constituents for self-assembled frameworks. This critical review scrutinizes the influence of assembly on the photoluminescence (PL) properties of MNCs and investigates their utility in biosensing applications. The investigation isinitiated with an assessment of the shift from individual MNCs to assemblies and its repercussions on PL efficacy. Subsequently, two distinct biosensing modalities are explored: assembly-driven detection mechanisms and detection predicated on structural modifications in assembled MNCs. Through meticulous examination, we underscore the potential of self-assembly methodologies in tailoring the PL behavior of MNCs for the detection of diverse biological analytes and diseases.
