Abstract

Nanoporous gold made by dealloying silver/gold alloys is a relatively new material finding application in catalysis, sensing, and other areas. Here we discuss the metallurgical processing required to make patterned foils of nanoporous gold with large, flat grains, with which we are exploring an application as substrates for the heterogeneous nucleation of protein crystals.
