AQC

Atomic Quantum Clusters are stable clusters of between 2 and 150 atoms, with average particle sizes in the range 0,5-2 nm. These very small particles exhibit unique properties through quantum size effects, which are dominant over classical Newtonian behavior, as a consequence of cluster sizes being comparable to the electron Fermi wavelength.

AQC are available in Silver and Gold, with potential to produce others, and can be prepared to custom specifications including cluster size, surface functionalisation, concentration and carrier fluid. The following products are listed as examples of currently available materials.

	NGAP AQC Ag-1101-W Silver AQC are predominantly used as antimicrobial additives where compared to nanoparticles, they exhibit enhanced efficacy and transparency and do not discolour through oxidation.
