#A gold nanoparticle nearly cloaked by a single molecule
“#A gold nanoparticle nearly cloaked by a single molecule” Shadow stealer. The absorption of light by a gold nanoparticle is reduced—and the shadow weakened—when a dye molecule (red) is placed nearby. With experimental improvements, the nanoparticle could become transparent. Credit: J. Zirkelbach/Max Planck Inst. for the Science of Light, via Physics, DOI: 10.1103/Physics.13.141 A team…
