Abstract

Systems in the range between 1 and 50 nm have an intermediate size between single molecules and bulk materials. This is why they exhibit unique electronic properties which obey quantum-mechanical rules [1] that strongly depend on particle size and shape, as well as on interparticle interactions and protecting agents, if there were some. In these small systems, the outer electrons can tunnel between close particles. Mobile electrons are trapped and oscillate collectively, resulting in a plasmon resonance band. All quantum effects occur when the de Broglie wavelength of the valence electrons is of the order of the size of the particle itself.
