Interview with: Dr Richard Holliday from the World Gold Council.
framework evaluates how a single nanowire grows and effects of different growth factors
Researchers have confirmed that the 'seed' particles used to grow gold nanoparticles are actually 32-atom spherical molecules known as gold buckyballs.
Using iron oxide nanoparticles, researchers have been able to control the orientation, and thus optical properties, of gold nanorods with a magnetic field.
By dispersing single atoms of platinum on a sheet of molybdenum sulphide, researchers have developed an inexpensive catalyst for splitting water.
A novel thin-film material can rapidly transition from an electricity-transmitting metal to an insulator without changing its atomic structure.
