The fascination with gold is a story which spans millennia, however
scientists have recently found a new interest for gold when it is
divided into miniscule grains, such as gold nanoparticles. This
scientific enthusiasm started in various fields of science in the
middle of the 1980s and the present book offers a panorama of the
major scientific achievements obtained with gold
nanoparticles.Various topics are reviewed such as: gold
nanoparticle preparation methods, their plasmon resonance and
thermo-optical properties, their catalytic properties, their use in
biology and medicine as well as their possible toxicity and,
finally, their future technological applications. The book also
contains an in-depth study of the use of gold nanoparticles
throughout the ages, starting from times where the concept of
nanoparticles was beyond the realm of human imagination. All these
topics are presented by world-class scientists within a set of
self-contained chapters.This book may be used as an advanced
textbook by graduate students and scientists who need an
introduction to gold nanoparticles. It is also suitable for experts
in the related areas of chemistry, biology, material science,
optics and physics, who are interested in broadening their
knowledge and who wish to have an overview of the subject. Each
chapter gradually leads the reader from the basics of a topic
towards some of the current scientific challenges in the area. The
necessary background material to achieve a solid understanding of
each topic and the scientific literature to go further in the field
is provided.
