Gold nanoplates

Product Description

Gold nanoplates are aqueous dispersions of plate-like, triangular gold nanoparticles. They exhibit a sharp optical absorption profile and a vivid blue color. The peak absorption wavelength of gold nanoplates is determined by their particle size and aspect ratio (maximum length to thickness). Generally, as the aspect ratio increases, the absorption peak shifts toward longer wavelengths.
