Collaboration Strikes Gold Pioneering a New Method for Catalyst Production

Thursday, September 8, 2016 - 11:01 in Physics & Chemistry

An ultra-high-vacuum chamber with temperatures approaching absolute zero--the coldest anything can get--may be the last place you would expect to find gold. But a group of researchers from Stony Brook University (SBU) in collaboration with scientists at the Air Force Research Lab (AFRL) and the U.S. Department of Energy's (DOE) Brookhaven National Laboratory have just demonstrated that such a desolate place is ideal for producing catalytically active gold nanoparticles.
