Why did we choose not to sell them “bare” ?

Why did we choose not to sell them “bare” ?

If you have ever worked with Gold Nanostars, you may have observed a frustrating phenomenon: nanostars that initially exhibit a strong LSPR band in the 900–1100 nm region (ideal for...

When “20 nm gold” is really 20 nm – every time

When “20 nm gold” is really 20 nm – every time

Comparison of three independent Gold Nanoparticles lots of 20nm Gold Nanoparticles shows that their analytical profiles are almost indistinguishable, demonstrating tight control over size distribution, deviation, and optical characteristics across...

Why is Surface Chemistry a real “product” when buying Gold Nanoparticles?

Why is Surface Chemistry a real “product” when ...

When you order gold nanoparticles, you’re not really buying only “20 nm spheres.” You’re buying a surface. Surface chemistry is the real “product”, while the metal core is the scaffold...

What to choose: Gold Nanostars or Gold Nanourchins?

What to choose: Gold Nanostars or Gold Nanourch...

Both Gold Nanostars (AuNSs) and raspberry-like Gold Nanourchins (AuNUs) leverage plasmonic enhancements but relate to different niches in nanotechnology-driven biomedicine and sensing. In practice, nanostars are usually chosen when narrow,...

What are Gold Nanostars’ “hot spots”?

What are Gold Nanostars’ “hot spots”?

Gold Nanostars' "hot spots" are tiny regions at the sharp tips of their spiky branches and in very small gaps between spikes, where electromagnetic fields intensify dramatically due to localized...
