Magnetic Gold

Physicists at the Georgia Institute of Technology have made two important findings regarding gold on the nanoscale.
They found that applying an electrical field on a surface-supported gold nanocluster changes its structure from a three-dimensional one to a planar flat structure.
In another paper, they relate their discovery that gold in this size regime can be made magnetic through oxygenation of gold nanowires.
Small is Different.
