Precisely arranging nanoparticles
- Advertisement -
In the incredibly small world of molecules, the elementary building blocks — the atoms — join together in a very regular pattern. In contrast, in the macroscopic world with its larger particles, there is much greater disorder when particles connect. A research team has now succeeded in achieving the same precise arrangement of atoms shown in molecules, but using nanometer-sized particles, known as ‘plasmonic molecules’ — combinations of nanoscale metallic structures that have unique properties.
