Charge-dependent hierarchical self-assembling of fluorinated gold nanoclusters
Au<sub>25</sub>(SR)<sub>18</sub> nanoclusters decorated with semifluorinated thiolate ligands (SFLs) self-assemble hierarchically depending on the charge state of the nanocluster component; the use of the anionic cluster ([Au<sub>25</sub>]<sup>-</sup>) resulted in the generation of nanofibers, whereas the neutral counterpart ([Au<sub>25</sub>]<sup>0</sup>) gave micron-sized filaments as a result of the bundling/twisting of the nanofibers.
