- Additional information
- First demonstration synthesis of Au nanoparticles in flight on microsecond timescales, many orders of magnitude faster than previous reports and without additives or ligands, fast enough for on-demand supply and delivery e.g. direct to tissue. Represents one of the outcomes of EPSRC project EP/K006088/1, underpins US Patent Application 20190358708 and contributed to obtaining EPSRC awards EP/R008841/1 for XPS of liquids and EP/T016000/1 for novel materials synthesis inside microfluidic channels. Invited talks: 5th Solution Plasma & Molecular Technologies, Germany 2017, 70th Gaseous Electronics Conference, USA, 2017, (upcoming) 239th meeting of Electrochemical Society, June 2021.
