Gold owes its dazzling lustre to the way it reflects light. But ultra-thin gold flakes can also generate and emit their own light in a process called photoluminescence.

Researchers have been trying for years to create thin gold of this kind, but have been foiled by the fact that metal tends to clump up. The breakthrough finally came with a century-old technique ...

Gold is one material scientists have long been eager to make as thin as graphene, but so far, efforts have been in vain. Now though, researchers from Linköping University in Sweden have borrowed from ...

ETH Zurich researchers have developed a gold nanocoating that heats glass by up to 46F by absorbing a large amount of infrared radiation, keeping your glasses fog-free in many humid conditions.

Science research materials Researchers develop nano-thin gold coating to prevent glass from fogging up Ideal for eyeglasses and windshields By Shawn Knight December 12, 2022, 12:57 PM 12 comments ...

Gold thin-film metals are often seen as the most significant signal amplification components in electrochemical and optical sensor applications. Worth noting are observations of a study published in ...
