Functionalized gold nanoparticles for 2-naphthol binding and their fluorescence properties

A new paradigm on the chemical potentials of components in multi-component nano-phases within multi-phase systems

“…The steady development of nano-technologies [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] requires a solid theoretical basis and clear techniques to calculate the equilibrium of nano-systems. Nano-systems contain at least one phase with at least one of its dimensions below 100 nm.…”
