Gold platelets for high-quality plasmonics

What is it about?

This is just an overview article, because Björn Hoffman (main author) managed it do shoot a fantastic electron microscope image of flat nano scaled gold crystals. It was picked as title image. For more science please follow its references.

Why is it important?

To be true ... it is not too important. The real science is elsewhere. But the image is really an eye-catcher. Use it for your slides about mono-crystalline gold flakes.
