Gamma irradiation effects on the electrical properties of gold nanoparticles.

Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) offer a great promising in biomedical applications and their size has been shown to be important parameters that affect the particles uptake and cellular imbibition. The presented dielectric data indicates that AuNPs have well characteristic dispersion in the alpha relaxation region. The presented work aims to characterize and improve the quality control of AuNPs, define the benefit combination effects of size and gamma irradiation on the properties of AuNPs dielectric relaxation spectroscopy.
