Gold has been a treasured material for various cultures for thousands of years. This enduring appeal comes from a combination ...

Gold doesn’t tarnish like similar metals do. A new paper says that the key is the intricate “herringbone” pattern of its atoms.

A 40-atom gold nanocluster breaks from gold's signature dense packing, forming square atomic planes with a central channel that accelerates electron relaxation about 80x. (Nanowerk Spotlight) Gold ...

A team led by scientists at the National Graphene Institute (NGI) at The University of Manchester has developed the first technique capable of capturing atomic‑resolution videos of individual gold ...

Gold has long been prized for its stability, but in the world of chemistry, that stability of gold is precisely what has caused the problem. The process of oxygen activation, the first step in many ...

Sub-5-nm gold antennas match the scale of 2D semiconductors, concentrating light where atomically thin materials can convert and detect it.
