In the transition region from a bulk semiconductor to a molecular cluster, the optical and photocatalytic properties of a semiconductor drastically change as the size of the crystallite is decreased Several inorganic cluster molecules with a well-defined particle size and structure, (that is, Zn4(Sph)10(2-), Cd4(sph)10(2-), Cd10S4(SPh)16(4-), and Zn4O(OAc)6) were synthesized and compared to the analogous mononuclear complexes Zn(SPh)4(2-) and Cd(Sph)4(2-). These clusters showed structured absorption spectra and a red-shift of their absorption edges with increasing crystallite size. The observed extinction coefficients suggest that the absorption bands can be best ascribed to ligand-to-metal charge-transfer (LMCT) transitions, which can be thought of as molecular cluster analogs of valence-to-conduction band transitions in bulk ZnS and CdS. Luminescence lifetimes and Stokes shifts provide further information about the nature of the optical transitions.
