Abstract

Nanoalloy clusters have attracted a lot of attention in recent times and have grown enormously in various domains, ranging from semiconductor, material sciences, biophysics, life sciences to earth sciences. In this report, we presented a review of nanoalloy clusters and their application. The background of clusters, nanoalloys and their isomers, their classification, and potential applications ranging from catalysis, optoelectronics, magnetic to bio-diagnosis are reported. Experimental techniques as well as the importance of theoretical and computational studies in nanoalloy clusters are also presented.

Keywords: Nanoalloy clusters, optical properties, electronic properties, magnetic properties, catalysis, bio-diagnostics.
