Scientists turn to gold to help advance nanoparticle research
Phys.org says French researchers used gold nanoparticles to study acoustic vibrations and associated energy dissipation. The research could have application in the next-generation of light detectors, optical circuits and cancer therapies:
Sudhiranjan Tripathy at the A*STAR Institute of Materials Research and Engineering and co-workers, collaborating with Arnaud Arbouet and colleagues from the National Center of Scientific Research (CNRS) in France, have now analyzed the effect of different environments on individual gold nanoparticles, their acoustic vibrations and associated energy dissipation.
