The gold nanosheet (which has been artificially colored) that's just two atoms thick. University of Leeds Gold that’s just two atoms thick has been created in a lab by British scientists. The “world’s ...

Gold is a key element for electronic devices, and since those devices are always shrinking, engineers need to find ways to make smaller components too. On that path, scientists from the University of ...

For the first time, scientists have managed to create sheets of gold only a single atom layer thick. The material has been termed goldene. According to researchers, this has given the gold new ...

Recently, a team of researchers from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) consecutively removed the innermost atom and the outermost electron of a gold ...

The inside of giant planets can reach pressures more than one million times the Earth's atmosphere. As a result of that ...

Medieval alchemists toiled unsuccessfully to change lead into gold, but physicists at the Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland had better luck – though for only a microsecond. Instead of alchemy, ...

(Nanowerk News) Researchers at the Nanoscience Center at the University of Jyväskylä, Finland, have shown that dramatic changes in the electronic properties of nanometre-sized chunks of gold occur in ...

Scientists precisely removed a gold nanocluster's core atom and outer electron, revealing how spin state affects catalytic activity without structural loss. (Nanowerk News) In a breakthrough that ...

Researchers have created the world's "thinnest unsupported gold" that is just two atoms thick. A team from the University of Leeds in the U.K. say the material measures only 0.47 nanometers in ...
