Thin Layer of Silica Enables Golden Nanoparticles “To Shine” Brighter

Scientists from the Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University found out that gold nanoparticles, covered by thin layer of silica, disperse light better than those that have thick "coat". Such nanoparticles are used as a system of targeted delivery of drugs, and the intense dispersion of light enables to keep track of their movement in organism with the help of special devices. The results were...
