Phys.org recently reported that researchers at UTS have solved the riddle of what makes gold special in today’s emerging field of nanotechnology.
According to the news:
Professor Jeffrey Reimers and Associate Professor Mike Ford, from the School of Mathematical and Physical Sciences, led a team that explained the chemical bonding process that occurs during the growth of gold nanoparticles.
Professor Reimers commented:
Gold is unique because it doesn’t rust, corrode or tarnish, meaning that it generally doesn’t react with the things around it. That’s why it’s known as a ‘noble metal’.
The electrons in gold travel so fast they become heavy, an effect more important for gold than other atoms … so gold has the appearance of a metal, but with a strange colour and many more properties like those of non-metals such as sulphur.
