    This real time video shows two gold nanoparticles that are on the surface of larger iron oxide particles at 900 °C. At this temperature the gold is very mobile, and the two particles coalesce into one larger nanoparticle. This demonstrates the stability of the Protochips Aduro platform at high temperatures. This video is in real time and taken on a JEOL ARM200F (200 kV, Cs aberration correction) transmission electron microscope at JEOL in Akishima, Japan.

  • @mattdmaster005
    @mattdmaster005 4 роки тому +3

    This makes a lot of sense from a probabilistic model. The gold particles are more a stream of superimposed electrons that form a plasma bubble. The nature of the particles is such that we observe the snap of the two plasma bubbles joining to form one globular mass. You cannot see particles here, the particles we see are an accumulation of atoms and ions, rapidly changing states. The temperature and the substrate allow the gold particles to be electrically energized without interacting with the surroundings but is still able to absorb other gold particles. The best way to understand the quantum world is through time and to think how a particle persists in time, given the subatomic world doesn't have the same rules for time. The number of interactions per second is mind blowing even with such a small amount of gold and iron oxide.

    This is way more than 2 gold atoms for anyone thinking otherwise. Look at the scale on the video, 5 nanometers. There is no atom anywhere near big enough to be on the nano scale. The heaviest atom, Cesium, has an atomic radius of around 270 picometers, which is almost 1000 times smaller than a nanometer.

      +Billy Debenham Imo on the quantum level the universe behaves according to certain laws. As long as the two masses were separate, they could exist just fine, but as soon as they started to share the same space, the exclusion principle kicks in an one particle has to give up its space. At the quantum level it would require that one particle give up its existence so as to not violate the natural law of matter. The question being, that if a particle can neither be created or destroyed then did that particle convert to energy? My guess would be that matter at that level could easily be converted into energy as all matter is just energy in slow motion anyway.

The reason they fuse so easily is because at its core, they're just a bunch of gold atoms sitting next to each other, so when more atoms of gold approach, they can pretty easily be assimilated into the structure by the same forces which held the original nanoparticles together.
