@etayyabi @SerendipityWrk Hello All, Glad to join you. I hope this doesn’t stray off topic too far – though it is topical – if not passé …. but thought we’d update on a new project that is developing ultrasensitive lateral flow devices for wide-spread, population-level screening. #SerendpityWrk
@SerendipityWrk @etayyabi We recently discovered a way to make free-standing gold nanomaterials.
At just two atoms thick – this represents the world thinnest unsupported gold.
It is truly a 2D material – every atom being on the surface.

@SerendipityWrk @etayyabi HRTEM shows the AuNS to be flexible, display rounded edges & highly ordered
UV-VIS shows extended absorbance into the near-IR with no strong absorbance around 520 nm (expected for colloidal gold nanoparticles)
The green gold became known as gold nanoseaweed (AuNS)
