Scientists have prepared the world's most fine gold (gold), which is only equal to 2 molecules thin. It can be understood that it is 1 million times thinner than our nails. Researchers at the University of Leeds in Britain have measured gold thickness at 0.47 nanometers. This substance is described as 2D because it has 2 layers of molecules on top of one.
This substance can have wide applications in medical devices and the electronic industry. It can also be used to catalyze chemical processes in some industrial processes. Laboratory tests have shown that it is more effective than the gold nanoparticles currently used as gold catalysts. Sunziye Yi of the University of Leeds said that this work is a historical achievement.
