General description
Gold(Au) is a yellow noble metal known for its lustrous appearance and outstandingresistance to corrosion. Our high-purity gold is available in foil form,featuring a thickness of 0.127 mm and a purity of 99.999% on a trace metalsbasis. Gold foil is widely utilized in the electronics industry for itsexcellent electrical conductivity, making it ideal for use in connectors,circuit boards, and other electronic components. In the field of optics, gold foil is used in coatings and filters,leveraging its unique reflective properties for applications in optical devicesand sensors.
Application
Gold-foil can be used to fabricate carbide-derived nanoporous carbon based polymeric actuators. Gold-foil modified actuators show high frequency response and low operating voltage.
TiO2 coated gold foils can used to enhance the electrocatalytic oxidation of glucose.
Gold foil can be used as a reference electrode for the electro-reduction of carbon dioxide.

In this paper, we proposed the use of gold nanoparticles as plasmon scattering probes for dark-field multiplex imaging of live cancer cells. By carefully engineering the surfaces, aqueous dispersions of anti-EGFR antibody-conjugated gold nanospheres and gold nanorods are prepared. We

The crystallization of Au/glass ultrathin films for surface plasmon resonance (SPR) biosensor has been studied using synchrotron X-ray scattering and field emission scanning electron microscope. In films thinner than 30 nm, crystallized Au grains with [111] preferred orientation were formed

We report on the enhancement of sensitivity of SPR biosensor by modifying the metal surface. A mixture layer, in which gold and dielectric medium coexist, was simply prepared by increasing the roughness of gold surface deposited onto a glass substrate
