Ultra-small gold particles

The study of nanosized particles has its origin in colloid chemistry, which dates back to 1857 when Michael Faraday (1791-1867) set out to systematically investigate the optical properties of thin hhns of gold. Faraday prepared a suspension of ultra-small metaUic gold particles in water by chemically reducing an aqueous solution of gold chloride with phosphorus (Faraday, 1857). To this day, nanoscale metal particles are stiU produced by chemical reduction in aqueous solutions. [Pg.532]
