In this study, the effects of size and surface density of gold clusters on ZnO nanostructures were introduced. Photoluminescence characteristics revealed the formation of a Schottky junction and a distinct enhancement in emission efficiency with decreasing cluster dimensions. This work underscores the paramount importance of atomic-level cluster size control for fabricating functional nanomaterials with precise electronic behavior.
