a UV–vis spectra of 3Cys-ΔC-stabilized Au NCs, curcumin encapsulated 3Cys-ΔC-stabilized Au NCs, and free curcumin. b TEM image of curcumin encapsulated within the cavity of 3Cys-ΔC-stabilized Au NCs. c Encapsulation of curcumin within the cavity of 3Cys-ΔC-Au NCs composite has no effect on the fluorescence spectrum of 3Cys-ΔC-stabilized Au NCs. Inset: curcumin encapsulated by 3Cys-ΔC-Au NCs under visible light and UV-light, and free curcumin (from left to right)
