DESCRIPTION:The vibrant ruby red colours of gold nanoparticles
  have enthralled people as early as the Roman era\
 , and the curious interactions of metal particles 
 with light have been employed in e.g. stained glas
 s ever since. However\, it was Michael Faraday who
  first correlated these unique optical properties 
 with the size of the particles\, and who was able 
 to reproducibly manufacture colloidal suspensions 
 of gold. Since then\, science has come a long way\
 , and a better understanding of these nanophotonic
  phenomena now allows us to use gold particles to 
 detect minute traces of molecules and even to trac
 k the behaviour of single molecules and atoms in r
 eal-time. These nanoscale optical properties will 
 play a key role in emerging technologies.
