Implantation dose or fluence it controls the amount of dopant (i.e., its local concentration) introduced in the target per unit surface area. It is measured in ions/cm and it is the integral over the depth of the concentration profile. Typical values in the nanocluster synthesis are lO -lO ions/cm. For a comparison, the t5 pical fluence values for semiconductor doping processes are 10 -10 ions/cm. ... 

Figure 2 Biomimetic synthesis strategy for peptide encapsulated nanoclusters. Synthesis begins with complexation of peptide hgand to metal ion, followed by borohydride reduction of metal complex, nucleation, and formation of peptide stabilized nanocluster.
