Gold

Chemical Formula:

Au

Gold (Au) has good electrical and thermal conductivity and is a malleable and ductile metal. It is used by our researchers for a wide variety of purposes. Below is listed the equipment where you can deposit (sorted by deposition method) and etch it, as well as interesting documentation regarding use of Gold.
