Abstract: Counterfeit goods represent a major problem to companies, governments, and customers, affecting the global economy. In order to protect the authenticity of products and documents, optical anti-counterfeit technologies have widely been employed via the use of discrete molecular species, extended metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), and nanoparticles. Herein, for the first time we demonstrate the potential use of molecular cluster-aggregates (MCA) as optical barcodes via composition and energy transfer control. The tuneable optical properties for the [Ln20(chp)30(CO3)12(NO3)6(H2O)6], where chp-=deprotonated 6-chloro-2-pyridinol, allow the fine control of the emission colour output, resulting in high-security level optical labelling with a precise read-out. Moreover, a unique tri-doped composition of GdIII, TbIII, and EuIII led to MCAs with white-light emission. The presented methodology is a unique approach to probe the effect of composition control on the luminescent properties of nanosized molecular material Ver menos
