Nano gold

A new animation illustrating how gold behaves at the nanoscale.

The animation has been designed as a communication tool for secondary school curriculums to use the example of gold to illustrate how bulk properties change at the nanoscale.

The National Enabling Technologies Strategy (NETS-PACE) has been expanding the reach of the national nanotechnology secondary school resources at AccessNano.

The animation was created by Bridge8 with the help of James Hutson, to explain the nanoscale and properties of nanogold. It could also be used in Scale, Properties, or the Health and Medicine NanoGold modules.

The start of the animation is also a good general introduction to the nanoscale for broader audiences.
