Nanoparticles

Caption

The experiments were carried out with nanoparticles of different sizes and structures. The first two of the series consisted of solid gold and the last consisted of a core of glass with a surface of gold. The beads were illuminated with near infrared light with wavelengths of 807 nanometers and 1064 nanometers. The most effect nanoparticle was the gold-plated glass bead.
