General description

Gold (Au) is a yellow noble metal celebrated for its lustrous appearance and exceptional resistance to corrosion. Our high-purity gold is available in wire form with a diameter of 0.5 mm. Gold wires are widely utilized in the electronics and semiconductor industries for interconnecting integrated circuits, thanks to their outstanding conductivity and corrosion resistance. In the field of nanotechnology, gold wires are investigated for their unique properties, including cold welding and remarkable conducting capabilities, which make them ideal for nanoscale electronic applications. Additionally, gold-coated wires offer enhanced durability and oxidation resistance, making them suitable for demanding environments in aerospace and electronics. Overall, gold wires are integral to material science, particularly in advanced electronics and nanotechnology applications, even as research continues to explore cost-effective alternatives.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) are of biomedical importance, such as delivery vectors. Therefore, we used all-atom molecular dynamic simulations to study the interaction of AuNPs with cell membrane (DMPC bilayer). We observed that the AuNPs adhered spontaneously on the surface of

Multifunctional phosphine based ligands, 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane [CH3C(CH2 PPh2)3][P3] and 1,1,1-tris(diphenylphosphinomethyl)ethane trisulphide [CH3C(CH2P(S)Ph2)3][P3S3] have been introduced to stabilize Au(o)-nanoparticles having small core diameter and narrow size distribution. The Au(o)-nanoparticles were synthesized by the reduction of HAuCl4 precursor with NaBH4 in the presence

We report on the enhancement of sensitivity of SPR biosensor by modifying the metal surface. A mixture layer, in which gold and dielectric medium coexist, was simply prepared by increasing the roughness of gold surface deposited onto a glass substrate
