Recently, Nanoarchitectonics has been introduced as a new concept that refers to a technology system for arranging nanoscale structural units in a required architecture. Multifunctional properties are achieved by a combination of several materials in a well-defined architecture. In the frame of this concept, composite nanoarchitectures represent a new class of nanostructured entities that integrate various dissimilar nanoscale building blocks including clusters, particles, wires and films. The heterogeneous composite nanostructured materials are composed by definition of multi-(nano)components, each tailored to address different requirements. As one of the nanocomponents, nanometer sized metal clusters (6 atom nanosized cluster units for optical, nanobiotechnology, energy and environmental applications.
