White light emission from gold nanoclusters embedded bacteria

Abstract

We report the unprecedented synthesis of gold nanoclusters using green fluorescent protein (GFP)-expressing bacteria as the stabilizer. Combining the blue and green fluorescence of GFP-expressing bacteria and orange luminescence of the nanoclusters, white light emission associated with appreciable quantum yield, color rendering index and correlated color temperature was achieved.
