The ligand system-whether conjugated or nonconjugated-plays a pivotal role in shaping the electronic structure and optical properties of CAMs. Conjugated ligands enable electron delocalization throughout the ligand framework, enhancing electronic coupling and producing distinct optical responses. In contrast, non-conjugated ligands lack this electron delocalization, limiting interaction with the cluster core and resulting in different optical and electronic profiles. This variation in ligand conjugation is thus essential for tuning the UV-visible absorption characteristics of these materials. However, changes in the cluster node and the resulting framework structure can significantly impact the UV-visible absorption properties of CAMs, making it intriguing to analyze this property when multiple factors interplay.
